Looking for ideas

Post by PatT123 »

I am fascinated with engineering and building things
I build tree houses so projects about building materials would be cool
But I have an old generator that needs to be rebuilt I would really like to incorporate this into a project but I don't know how

Hi PatT123,

Given your interests, you might want to review the guide for engineering projects:

One idea that comes to mind is to make a project out of rebuilding your old generator. I’m sure that there are some performance specifications that you could set as goals. And after the rebuild you could make measurements of the generator’s performance.

I hope this helps. Please post again if you have more questions.
