i needed a variable speed toothed wheel, with a vr sensor on it, to simulate a rolling road signal to test my newly donated chassis dyno soft/hardware ...



voila...

No Theo in the photo inspecting said strange contraption so abject fail.

And what on earth is an overseas mains adapter doing in a kitchen in Oxfordshire?

How many other appliances had you taken apart first before concluding the food mixer was the most suitable?

Ah, I see now, half hidden and in "soft focus". He still looks un-impressed though. As in, I'd much rather he gave my mole back than play with kitchen utensils.

So what speed does it achieve ?

Can’t knock it if it works. When I was playing with Megajolt I put a toothed wheel in my lathe chuck and a VR sensor in the tool post.

lathe is dead handy for checking what orentation/spacing gives the best signal for positioning the bracket,

I hope you have set up the Robwood pulse mix so it can simultaneously simulate crank trigger speed and knock up a nice sponge cake?

Those instruments remind me of my job 15 years ago, lots of buttons and knobs to play with; still do the business though.

We still have the old paper chart recorders, which were fun.
