They made one on Blue Peter some time ago out of an old shoe box, some sticky backed plastic and an old toilet roll.

Stuck one on my lawn mower. Worked a treat.

lol as someone on youtube says

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the TURBO- ENCABULATOR! The most amazing, wonderful, fantastic device EVER conceived by man!!! It slices! It dices! It makes Julienne fries!

I have one of these on my Merlin powered skateboard. It's what allows the Merlin to keep running with no load when the board isn't moving. It'd be great in a Mini but you would need to use a pretty special mass compensator to bring the kerb weight back down to something sensible. They are pretty chunky when fully built you see. The all up mass of the skateboard with the compensator switched off is currently around 57 tons, most of that being the encabulator's second stage. As for building one yourself, as it also says on You-tube the hard part is the nubbing. Successful nubbing is tricky to pull off for a first timer and is more of an art than a science. You should expect a return of around +3,400% horsepower over your current setup.

the difficulty in nubbing together a regurgative purl welll and a supernative weinal sprocket by using an hydras nangling pin enabling a cryptonaptic bowling shim to be tankered.

W.T.F!!!!

We had a few of those around when I used to work on the Space Shuttle. I mean ...... guys that talked exactly like that. That is why I retired, I could not comprehend them.

Did anyone else find the video a bit dumbed down? Would be good to get a bit more presice information on the drawn reciprocating dingle arm. I'll have a look on Wikipedia...
