Hi guys !!!
I was wondering if anyone could be kind enough to give me some ideas or inspiration, guidance direction ..
I want to make a personal fan ...After plugging it in, i would like it to be started up buy spinning the fan blades. Stopping it buy grabbing or impeding the blades...
the blades are soft and moving slowly..so there should be any loss of limbs...
so i thought i could use a centrifugal switch, or 2 or three mercury switches connected at angles....
I am a complete newb when it comes to electronics so anything more than connecting a few off the the shelf products and soldering them together will be a challenge for me so as of right now my goal is simpler the better....
right now I am trying to gather info and find out as much info as possible...
Right now I dont know where to source parts or even the correct names for what I am looking for
I have a little over a month to complete this project and time is as usual of the essecne (sp)
So any info would be great..
thanks in advance
