Hey, all. This is my first time posting so I apologize if this is in the wrong forum. I have been tasked with building a platform a user can stand on with a motorized outer ring that rotates around the user very similar to this video: [url=http://vimeo.com/76863096]Break the Mould documentary on Vimeo[/url] (ignore the artsy design stuff...). I've never done a project of this scale and had a few questions regarding motor type and setup. First, my current design involves having a "loose" outer ring that fits around a center platform and sits on top of three caster wheels and a motorized wheel that will cause it to rotate when activated. (If needed, I can probably create an image of this.) Do you think this design would work or is there an easier alternative? Secondly, I'm not sure how powerful of a motor is needed. Do you guys have a good estimation for something like this?

Hi, While tinkering with my electrical panel, I came across a different device, which Google seems to tell me is an AFCI breaker. See the following picture: [ATTACH]25269[/ATTACH] My understanding is that the AFCI breaker will detect if there is current "leaking" from the circuit (as would be the case if part of the circuit was shorted through someone) and will trip the breaker. So it is not so much about amperage, but about the current exiting somewhere else. However, I looked which circuit was connected to this different breaker, and it seems that it is connected to the wall outlets of the bedrooms (we have 3 bedrooms). I don't understand why specifically the bedrooms are "protected" but not the other outlets in the house. We have a big open space / play room on the 3rd floor with at least 10 outlets in the walls, there would be more chance for a kid to insert a screwdriver THERE than in the rooms. My home is located in Canada. Thanks
