Working Magnetic Motor on you tube??

[Dom]

@Dom,

The rc helicopter guys said they have no idea what they are made of. I ordered them anyway--an apache type spare bearings.

np, i'll check the hdd bearings with a magnet soon, i don't think they are magnetic

Has anyone sourced the other parts?, bearings, magnets for the Uk?, I have the link for the German magnet company, but would prefer somewhere in the Uk.

Hi Lakes

I have some 5mm * 20mm Neos on order from this UK company. Could not get 6mm.

I have done a second Rotor to accompany these.

For Bearings try http://www.technobots.co.uk/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Bearings_377.html

Hope this helps

Cheers

Sean.

I'd also suggest the McMaster Carr website as a source for bearings (and almost anything else you could possibly ever want). http://www.mcmaster.com/

Well you guys dont know me from Adam, but I have been here watching for a looong time... I am extremely interested in this particular project, I have submitted the plans as kindly provided by Jason to my local machine shop friend... I have asked him to supply me a quote for 10 of the units... if there is any interest please let me know... I will post the cost each hopefully by the end of today. I am not sure how expensive it will be but will gladly send them at my cost plus shipping. Thanks

Hey UZ, please count me in also. I sent a PM.

I ordered magnets today.

You know I was just giving up on my own Magnet Motor project, ready to throw all that junk out, and this comes along pulling me back in!

Hi
Been Snooping and came across this spec.
These are magnetic, but got a hunch I'll be purchasing more bearings
later of the same dimensions, but different construction material.
Please see attached
