Re: Aluminum Stock Supplies?

Team 2168 , the CyberFalcons from Fitch High School in Groton CT had a flywheel machined from 12" stock...they purchased a 4" thick piece from McMaster-Carr...it was machined at Dominion's Millstone Nuclear Plant's machine shop. Stephanie Slezycki, who designed their gyro, is one of their engineering mentors, from Electric Boat (she's also a TechnoTick grad!).

Here's a video of it working:
