Working Magnetic Motor on you tube??

[crash_uni8]

hi im trying to replicate this too
quick question im looking at the .pdf of the motor and i haven't a clue....i attached the pdf
does anyone know what the length of one side of the octagon rotor is on page 3?

Thanks in advance

does anyone know what the length of one side of the octagon rotor is on page 3?

Well, the drawing says it's 2.375" from the center to the inner edge, which makes the inner edge 2.375*2*tan(22.5) = 1.968" long. Check my math.

But, I'm pretty sure I heard Al say that it was 2.5" to the inner edge (not the center of the trough), which would make these drawings wrong.

Lemme check...

He says:

The rotor is 3/4 in thick piece of HDPE plastic, 2 7/8 in radius, with a 0.500 in center hole bored all the way thru for the flanged axle bearings. Magnets are held in 8 evenly-spaced 1/4 in wide slots, 7/16 in deep, inner edge of slots at the 2 1/2 in radius from center

Cheers,

Mr. Entropy

EDIT: fixed length calculation

Guys just thought i would drop this off, i have a Panacea registered engineer (with allot of experience) building this for us ATM, will have full write up and disclosure if it gets working, here is the Blue prints he provided , hope it helps some one, am not back, am very busy these days working on Two open sourced devices will have them ready soon for third party testing.

I noticed that too, I think the file "drawings.pdf" has it off, it is taking the center of the rotor magnet as 2.5" from center.

Hello All,

About the blueprints. That dimension is different than what Al originally said because while I was drawing the rotor, I noticed a big discrepancy in the appearance of the rotor disk using the given measurements compared to the photos of the original. Look here to read the post about it (Pictures included):

Also, here is Al's reply to my finding:

Additionally, I had Al verify that all the stated dimensions in my blueprints are accurate. Here is his post regarding that as well:

I hope this clears up the confusion.

God Bless,
