This should be promoted to some bigger communities.
Maybe !coolguides@lemmy.ca or !interestingshare@lemmy.zip (with the relevant prefixes)
I've seen this before, and it's a paragon of how to explain and demonstrate mechanical concepts.
This person needs to be hired by someone full time to produce this kind of page for all the things.
Thanks for reminding me it exists.
***edit to add:
Omg I found archives of more!

yeah, that website is a treasure trove of amazing interactive mechanical demos.
Respect to them for modeling and animating that, making it render real time in web for the demonstration, that's sick
Omg the winding rotor moves as you spin the animation around!
I have managed to lose track of time while reading about how we track time.
I love seeing this masterpiece of an article shared around. Really incredible stuff!
Ineffably magnificent... no words may express how simply ingenious and incredible both the website work and such the marvel the work is attributed to...
What if schools would provide children such marvel? Yes, that requires a sufficient time to achieve, but dear... it's just... a miracle...
