The Eureka Effect in Relation to Bat Vehicle Planning and Building
Can sometimes be created and always encouraged to occur!
“An elicitation of understanding, a truly transparent and obvious
knowing that is rarely wrong, almost always accompanied by adrenaline,
exhilaration, and intense insight.”  Vertigo
Part Four: My Personal Experience with the Eureka Effect from Building
my Batman Tumbler
“I experienced a few small Eureka Effects, more like small
revelations, as I proceeded along in my research and building of the
Batman Tumbler. I did not experience a major Eureka Effect as I have
described it, until I had over 2000 hours of research and essential
skills development, along with around another thousand physical build
hours.
“An elicitation of understanding, a truly transparent and obvious
knowing that I was absolutely sure of, accompanied by adrenaline,
exhilaration, and intense insight.”
Translated into the physical build world of my Tumbler it means I am
left, after awareness of the initial realization, with a sense of
knowing. Knowing the related Tumbler concepts, essential building
skills, components, inter-relational aspects, and order of proceeding.
One might also describe it as a complete grasp of the eclectic
inter-relationship internalized.

exhilaration, and intense insight.”  Vertigo
Part Five: How to encourage the Eureka Effect
Rule: The more complex your Bat Vehicle concepts and skills involved
deficiencies, the more time will be required for you to gain the sense
of knowing. Knowing your Bat Vehicle related concepts, essential
building skills, components, inter-relational aspects, and order of
proceeding.
Even with a lot of time invested, it may not be enough to achieve the
Eureka Effect, as it relates to your Bat Vehicle build. However, the
time invested will certainly increase your odds. Even if you don’t
experience the Eureka Effect, enough time spent, will get you close
enough in the understanding of your Bat Vehicle concepts, essential
building skills, components, inter-relational aspects, and order of
proceeding to complete your Bat Vehicle build.  vertigo

Started experimenting with getting the second half (the part with the mechanics) to the correct length and orientation. vertigo

New Tumbler arm axle bearings, races, seals, and related parts arrived on Friday evening. Spent today overhauling and installing these parts. Finished all of first axle and plan to use proxy tire to determine exact required axle length as it relates to final axle parameters tomorrow.

sly "so this assembly fits inside the wheel rim? Or will you be cutting it back?"

It fits inside the rim.
The steel wheel rim is 20" diameter and 18' wide.
Where the kingpin rotates is centered inside the steel wheel rim and the wheel mating plate is back set to mate with the hub mating surface. May be able to find a factory made steel wheel rim with the right back set but will most likely have to get them custom made. May also find a factory made steel wheel rim that is close enough in dimension that I may be able to plasma cut the center plate free, adjust the inside set, and re-weld it.

I am using these gloves to protect my hands from grease and oil while
rebuilding my fronts axles. Worked in grease for several hours and
when I was done I pulled off the gloves and my hands were as clean as
they were before I started. I'll never go back to working in grease
and oil again bare handed. These cost a little more than a dollar a
pair.  If you are tired of the mess left on your hands while working
with wheel bearing grease and other oils, grease, resins, etc., then
these might be for you.

I buy mine from GEMPLERS.com

Nitri-Dex™ 9-mil, Nitrile Gloves

The 12"L Nitri-Dex 9-mil, Nitrile Gloves offer you increased chemical
resistance without the bulk of a heavier weight glove. Revolutionary
disposable gloves are R & L hand specific and feature tractor-tread
grip for keeping a firm hold even when wet.

They have extremely good sensitivity that allows them to pick up a
grease covered washer or sewing needle from the floor.  The unique
9-mil thickness and 12"L give you a new choice for many applications
from agriculture to automotive. Sold as a bag of 25 pairs. USA made.

Similar gloves are available for other chemicals, resins, solvents,
etc. with more options and greater mil thicknesses.

Here is the best wraparound face shield I have found.

I rarely use safety glasses or goggles anymore as my primary
protection since finding this product.

The level of protection is just so many times greater with this shield.

Stray metal fragments from grinding and saws are still the number one
eye injury causes for workers in metal fabrication. Around 5-10% of
these are injured even though they are wearing safety glasses. Reason:
The safety glasses didn’t have side protection and the metal fragments
entered from the non-protected sides and/or from above or below, when
the worker had their heads, tilted down or up, too much.
Additional worker eye injuries come from splashes and stray droplets
of fuels, oils, solvents, greases, paints, resins, chemicals, etc.
I also used mine when working on mills, lathes, metal cutting circular
cutting chop saws, etc.

Uvex WRAPAROUND FACESHIELD
Face Shield is contoured for superior protection and visibility
The Uvex Face Shield is extremely lightweight and features a contoured
design for superior face protection and improved visibility.
Ratcheting headgear allows you to fully adjust the shield for a
comfortable and secure fit, while the soft breathable headband keeps
you cool and dry in hot environments. Easy-to-replace face shield
window can be changed in seconds. Meets ANSI Z87.1-2010. USA made.

These cost $35.65 for uncoated window and $51.20 for
Hardcoated/Anti-Fog window from Gemplers. Anyone who has worked for
some length of time with grinders, saws, routers, drills, sanders,
mills, lathes, etc., in wood, metal, plastics, resins, liquids, etc.,
can usual recall several near misses from damage to their eyes.
Wraparound Face Shields and/or goggles are CHEAP AT THE PRICE when you
really consider how much your eyes are worth to
you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
