First, a quick tour of the features of this fan. At the bottom are the buttons to set the fan speed, a dial to adjust the pitch of the fan, and then the pin on top to make the fan move back and forth. Let's start at the bottom and go through this in detail now. Four buttons, three speeds, and then the white one turns off the fan. Each ...
The planetary gear set, also known as, the epicyclic gear train is one of the most important and interesting inventions in engineering. They are great speed variation mechanisms and are often used in automobiles as a vital part of automatic transmissions. A planetary gear set has four main parts: the sun, planet gears, ring gear, and carrier. You c...

I might have to do a future video on this. But for now, let's focus on this fan over here. Taking one apart is pretty simple. Several screws in the...
