teslaturbine's Issues

bearing pipe too big

When the bearing pipe is slip rolled, the length is too long to fit inside the hole in the end plate. I had to grind it down to reduce the length.

Weld the square stock onto the axle

Remove the notch for the square stock on the axle. Just increase the size of the square hole in the disks so the square stock can sit on the tangent of the axle. Weld it into place.

This requires one fewer operations.

Housing 1 & Housing exhaust are a pain

Housing 1 and housing exhaust are a pain in the neck to weld.

They look cool being round, but it adds no value. Make them rectangles so they are easier to weld.

Use bolts when welding

Use bolts to hold parts together while welding to reduce the metal from warping and bending.

Swap 1/2" for two- 1/4" housing5

Housing5 is currently 1/2" thick and there are 2 of them.

It turns out that it is 50% cheaper to use 2x 1/4" thick plates instead of 1x 1/2" thick. It requires extra welding.

Too tight!

I have assembled the turbine and it seems to be too tight. I'm not sure what is hitting, but it doesn't want to spin.

There needs to be a way to adjust the horizontal pressure on the bearings.

Remove the curves

The curves are a pain in the neck to weld! Remove them. Replace with more straight lines.

Bearing alignment

The bearing compression mount needs to somehow be vertially/horizontally adjustable so the axles are aligned and the disks are parallel to the inside of the housing.
