The other day, I went to use a pencil sharpener in the room of my robotics teacher and it started and stopped. The sharpener did not have enough power to turn when there was a pencil in it. This made me think, I could make it more powerful. We have motors leftover from previous robots. Wouldn’t it be cool to have a pencil sharpener hooked up to a DeWalt motor? Make some custom blades and you could eat an entire pencil in the matter of seconds. I think it would be fun to actually do this but know it is far to dangerous for me to actually do. It is just an entertaining thought. I am sure that I am not the only one on here who has had a “Tim the Toolman” moment. Please post any that you have had.
