ruggerodk,
Beautiful work at Graphic Designing.
I am sorry you got that error. I do not have commas in my generator and you have them. Something is different.
I used Open Office to make the excel. Then I saved it as MS Excel. I do not have MS Excel. Sorry.
The values are to large. Only if the commas are to be decimal points, then it looks right.
I am sorry MS Excel conversion of ODS makes the numbers look big.
I saw your image and understand what you are saying. Go for it if you like. Do not rely on this data in precise measurements in this generator because I am no expert yet and may have errors.
The reason there is a good force between 70 and zero is because the opposite force (balance weight) is absent. This was under your conditions. In real conditions, what you see from the generator with absent of balance weight will not work because you need a way to get the weight back in its initial position.
Look at the yellow column. If you see a negative, that shows the wheel wants to turn to the left. A positive to the right. The higher the number, the greater the force in that direction.
Thanks!

re: Progress towards the Screw Wheel
Good Day beapilot,
I have attempted a screw build in the past but came to the conclusion that a screw was just a friction filled ramp. I pray yours will prove successful.
I am unable to help on the math but I have had experience in parts acquisition and the old screwdriver design pictured below may be adapted readily to fast throws and bi-directional action. As well they are relatively inexpensive compared to having parts specially machined

Thank you Unbalanced for your feedback.
You are right. According to my generator, you can see that there is to much of a negative force. Such is pretty much caused by friction and the required overcome force.
