Great! I wonder how many people skipped this video, thinking it would be boring to watch a disk spin for over 3 minutes, and missed out on the hilarious commentary!
a bit of resistance starting at 2:54, i'm sure you could level out the brass a few micrometers and get a longer spin. still the most respectable DIY Euler disk ive seen yet!
Immediately subbed after the special bonus feature ended up being about Pluto. Anyone who thinks this is nothing a but a skippable video of a disc spinning is truly missing out.
I love Pluto too! I mean did you see those images of how geologically complex and diverse it is!! It's one of the most facinating bodies in the solar system gosh darn it!
@@squiderlol8637 I'm still skeptical. 2 minutes for the old record was really long, for someone to almost double that and then have that happen in the video just makes me doubtful
Strangly, it has a similar meter to the cube in Star Trek The Carbonite Maneuver. We seem to hear the theme play as it spins. Would be cool to paint the disk so that it gives a silimar reflctive effect. Mueller's disk meets Balok's cube.
@@mouseutopia i‘m 5 years late but there‘s a different video of a commercial disk in a vacuum chamber and it ran for 2:38 minutes while the normal one ran for only like 1:35! so yes, it does make a pretty big impact
I own a Euler's disk myself, and yes, the actual rotations of the disk become fewer in frequency as the frequency of the wobbling increases. The rotations slow to a crawl towards the end.
This Euler's disk seems to be some sort of mechanical oscillator, like a pendulum. If that is the case, you have potential energy being converted to kinetic energy and then back again.
I wonder if this is significantly different enough from the original patent that you could patent this, Because the original patent is a single metal disk I think not too different metals... It is true that there's a curvature on one side and not on the other but i think that is standard and how that works and that might be part of the patent i don't know.
Conservation of angualr momentum, but it only gradually shifts here. Hence, 3.5 minutes before it settles. A true balancing act of forces at work in physics.
Gotta admit i like the commentary, even if some of it is relatively flat.What i was wondering, since i don't have access to materials of this quality myself, if you would consider doing another video with a coloured gas or smoke, preferably not too much denser than normal atmospheric air, to make a good visual demonstration of the displacement of air around a disc; I'd love to have a decent visual comparison of the normal air spin-down and the visualizing gas/smoke spin-down, perhaps side-by-side, though of course you should do what you feel like doing regardless :)
In the 1960 movie version of H. G. Wells' "The Time Machine", star Rod Taylor arrives in the distant future - in AD 802,701 - and enters a ancient, crumbling museum. All the books are turned to dust, but on a shelf there sits something that looks very suspiciously like the apparatus Latheman666 has made. Turns out it is some kind of holographic movie projector known to the locals as one of the "talking rings". The disk is spun up and as it continues to spin a movie projected onto the air tells of a centuries-long nuclear war in the distant past. As the disk winds down and comes to a stop, so does the history lesson. Obviously, the spinning disk provided power to the projector. I suspect this Latheman666 read of H. G. Wells' travels in time and went to the future and stole that very same apparatus, only he has not succeeded in getting the movie to project no matter how many times he spins that disk, but he just keeps on trying. That is what he really wanted to show us instead of a boring disk spinning for 3 1/2 minutes.
Listening to the sound of this video, I can't help but think it sounds very similar to the recent (sped up) recordings of Black Holes merging - detected by the LIGOS detectors in 2016
I made one of these also out of a tungsten ring and brass insert and don't get anywhere near that length of time, best so far is 1 min 15 seconds. I can't imagine the reinforced mirror made that big of a difference. What do yo think is the reason?
came for a euler's disc. got it and a rant about Pluto. I gave it a like.
Same
I love how the commentary gets progressively more aggressive as the disk speeds up.
Question.
Who the hell rants about the whole pluto is a planet debate in the middle of a video about a euler disc record?
why not

Jerry Smith
I was just going to point that out. Good job Niko, have a pancake.
@@ryanshea94 beat me to it
I like how the commentary started off with the Euler's Disc and ended up with a rant about Pluto.
Euler's Disc = 10/10 well done!
Commentary = 17/10 YOU MADE ME CRY with laughter xD
Great! I wonder how many people skipped this video, thinking it would be boring to watch a disk spin for over 3 minutes, and missed out on the hilarious commentary!
true
-C’mon Jerry, say it again!
-Hmm, Pluto... is a planet.
*Plutonians rejoice*

Finally, some one with a decent starting spin

Dude Falling Down is one of my all-time favorites. I burst out laughing when that came up!
The Pluto bit was hysterical. I needed that laugh.😂😂😂
The Pluto rant! I love it!
M Ross - It got even better with the reference to Falling Down, especially since that's what the disk was doing for three minutes.
I'd absolutely love to buy one of these.
Mirror is wasting energy because its not stiff enough. All the sound is evidence of wasted energy. Great job. A new record.
This was awesome. Very entertaining. Thanks
Really nice job! I love that movie BTW. One of my all time favorites.
Bravo!!! Well done and presented.
Great. Perfect way for me to kill off the first day of the New year...watching your Euler disk fall down.
What a charming quixotic quest.
this is 8 years old and the algorithm just now suggested it to me. great video tho !
Yes! Pluto will always be a planet to me also!
I love Pluto too!
I mean did you see those images of how geologically complex and diverse it is!! It's one of the most facinating bodies in the solar system gosh darn it!
Pluto will always be a planet to me. Period.
I see the birth of a new toy... and Mattel handing you a fat check!
I love this guys text commentary
To be fair, I think the spolling starts around 1m 15s, so that would give a 2m 15s spoll.
Anyway, love the noise it makes towards the end! :)
That was very satisfying
Have you tried polishing the surfaces ? Maybe that could increase the time even more ?
Algorithm hits a home run 8 years late.
Viva Pluto! Oh yeah, cool disc thingy😄
Would it run longer if the disk was bigger, aka more potential energy and higher starting point
They rising pitch with the dramatic swoosh at the end reminds me of the gravity waves emitted by two black holes spiraling into each other.
Pluto is a planet in my heart
I love the Pluto ramble
Cant. Stop. Watching.
4:18 What's the magnet doing there 🤔
yeah seriously. This video is fake!
WONAM0NGTHAF3NCE whenever he let go of the magnet it got attracted to the mirrors rim

Very interesting, like the commentary :)

How does it stay in the same place?
Damn, that spins for a long ass time
Have you seen the videos of a Euler's Disc in a vacuum? It adds a full minute to the spin time.
Lols your comments is always the best..... Love how u narrates...
Can you make it pure tungsten so its even heavier?
Once you said "planet Pluto" the first time, I just had to like this video.
Very amusing presentation. Did you write the opening credits for Python's "Holy Grail"? ( A moose once bit my sister).
what would happen if you used the tech that lets you make things hover if you make it really really cold, surely that would eliminate some friction.
Im totally with you on the pluto issue
revisiting your video, it's so cool!
Very cool. What would happen if you did this inside a bell jar with a vacuum applied? Would the absence of air make a noticeable difference?
Steve Miller no, friction has the most influence in slowing the disc down.

I'd like to see it under strobe light.
Did the arrow really rotate that slowly, or is there some strobe effect from the 60 Hrz light source?
Yea this
I own a Euler's disk myself, and yes, the actual rotations of the disk become fewer in frequency as the frequency of the wobbling increases. The rotations slow to a crawl towards the end.
The commentary. Love it
how did you machine tungsten carbide?
I once had a marble table and real ivory dice. It's an amazing display if you get the chance. Try a "liquid metal " base if you get the chance.
This Euler's disk seems to be some sort of mechanical oscillator, like a pendulum. If that is the case, you have potential energy being converted to kinetic energy and then back again.

It is true that there's a curvature on one side and not on the other but i think that is standard and how that works and that might be part of the patent i don't know.
Thanks! That was actually a lot of fun. :)
Why not make the whole thing tungsten carbide
WoW... I think I'll stay home tonight and see what is next on this channel.
Now I know what looking into the center of a Kerr Loop must look like.
Graphite dust?
Can you graph the frequency vs time, with some type of microphone counter?
Conservation of angualr momentum, but it only gradually shifts here. Hence, 3.5 minutes before it settles. A true balancing act of forces at work in physics.
I learned all about Pluto in less than 3 1/2 minutes. ✌

Eris is objectively the best dwarf planet.
Awesome. You crack me up!

Liked and subsribed @2:30. PLUTO FOREVER!!
Can we buy ???
Is there any way to measure the speed between the mirror and the contact edge of the disk as they meet?
Pluto be like: 5"9
Every other planet be like: 6"1

Nice trick, try cutting off the head of a pin and glue it right in the center of the metal to make it more difficult to settle down...
Make it 10 hours put ASMR on the tag and you sir got yourself a viral video.
Brass weight?? That's not weight then it weighs way less than thungsten. And is that really made out of thungsten carbide or just thungsten
use a Teflon coated surface (eg non stick pan), you should get longer still
Máquinas fantásticas.
Pluto is a planet again.
Just think how long this would go inside a vacuum chamber

the ramblings of an Euler disk
did not planned to watch this video thoroughly; 3,5mins of Euler's disc, meh.. but your narration have amused me! :D
3:00
Sounds like my PS4's poor old fans kicking in during Red Dead 2.
Please see "standupmaths" and his video on the maths behind Euler's disc. He had a high speed camera setup to capture his disc and it was cool.
Yes, thanks, it's a good video. I've seen it already.
Should be called crazy lathe mans machines
low tire pressure cases the tire to flex giving more surface area giving more traction
Yay for planet Pluto!
Pluto is still a planet.
Pluto will ALWAYS be a planet to me.
And it sounds better than Uranus.....
dude you could use one of those as a spin the bottle!
Amazing!! Where did you get that disk and plate from?
Hi. He got them from Pluto.
6:11 this is the kinda stuff that makes a lot of people anxious
No one:
The aliens landing in 2020: wewwewwewwewwewwewweww
Your commentary...narration via sub titles is hilarious!
Wow ... Somebody's been a snortin off that mirror....lol.
