Chapter 13, Clockwork
Dynamo
A gear that makes power while it spins fast enough. It is hard to turn, so it slows what drives it.
How it works
- It makes power while it spins fast enough, and switches that power off when it slows down.
- It is hard to turn, like a real generator, so it slows whatever drives it.
- It meshes with gears just like a normal gear.
- A coasting train with a dynamo in it runs down quickly.
Tips
- Put it where something fast or strong enough turns it. Slow turning will not switch it on.
- A windmill or water wheel can drive it, but they slow down while they do.
