Could this be related to your experiment? In autumn 1996, a rift in the fabric of spacetime opened and I was pelted with a selection of sandwiches and a bowl of mustard.

If you have the right ratio & speed, the small gear could go FTL. Even it you manage to raise the speed of the top lazy susan to near c, observaions of particles near a black hole shows that they go so fast & hot it gives off high amounts of X-rays. I recall when the atomic bomb was being made, it was feared that it would burn so hot that it will fry the whole atmosphere. This FTL table could do that. reminds me of the large gear/small gear situation; a small gear will rotate faster than a lrger gear its meshed to.

Or some sort of axle through the center of each disc? To reduce frction you could use some sort of electromagnetic repulsion? Or you could do in space?

O.o Seriously though, what do you propose as a solution to the centrifugal force issue? Talk about getting dizzy… O.o
