FBP SimpleSimon
Abstract
The Simple Simon consists of three main parts: The outer cone, the rotor and shaft with a handle, and the base. Outer Cone: The outer cone is made of a 3/16 inch aluminum sheet cut into a shape that allows it to be wrapped into a truncated cone. Rotor and shaft with handle: The rotor is a truncated cone made of solid wood. The shaft is located in the center of the rotor. The handle is connected to the shaft for leverage and ease of use. Base: The base is a simple box with a raised disc. The raised disc enables the outer cone to be latched in place. A cylindrical hole in the center holds the shaft to minimize wobbling.
