Shrink and expand machine
2012The shrink and expandmachine moves caused by the temperature variation during day and night
Spoon sailing vessel
2011The spoon sailer has a rotating sail. The sail rotates because of the difference between air resistance of the conically shaped spoons/sails, when the wind is frontal or from the rear. Whatever the front of the back of the sail may be. The rotation of the sail is transferred to the wheels.
Primover
2011This machine is designed for studying movement that only can be found in nature. The wheel has never developed in nature and still things can move or at least change position. The Primover stands on sticks and by a vibration of the whole craft it moves. Two connected Primovers makes it possoble to add direction to the movement.
Against the wind sailing vessle
2011The against the wind sailing vessel moves by wind. A flap/valve sail is used. The difference in resistance between opened or closed flap/valves, causes rotation of the sail. That causes the wheels to turn. Wind can come from head or tail, it does not matter. The vessel always moves.
wobble seat
2011The seat wobble is a prototype for a new type of passenger traffic
