My first Neman motor

Hello everyone.  Ok. I have decided to take half of the bottom coil and put it on top. I am trying for a very nice wind, and going slowly. I will be doing this for most of today, perhaps even tomorrow. 

I have 26awg wire ordered.  I will make 2 coils out of it. Should be here in a day or two.

Ok, I took some wire from the bottom coil, to make a top coil.  While doing this, the wire broke.  Well, it broke at a length giving me 65.4ohms, which is fine by me, so I hooked it up and tried it.  The Bottom coil now measures 365ohms. I ran it with 200vdc. It ran for about one minute, slowed down, struggled for about another minute then stopped.

I am about to go out and buy a 6" diameter PVC pipe, because my 26awg wire arrived today (1257 feet of it, 57.5ohms total). I will do my best to put half on top, half on bottom, but I do not have a machine to tell me exactly when half is. At 57ohms, I will only use about 50v on it (at first). 

Going to make a video of a run right now, only it will be only around 95v.  If you want to see a 200v run let me know.

quick update, I have another video up.

Currently hard at work building another set of coils out of 26awg (1257ft, and only 65ohms).  Will make two coils out of this.  About to wind the coils now...

A square coil is being considered.  But will be after a couple of other round type. I ordered more wire, for going on top, but my current set-up needs to much current.  Need to re-think somethings.

Just remember that Newman's claim was voltage.

Ok, I built the 2 new coils with 26 awg wire. Total resistance of both coils is now at 57.2ohms.  With a 97v battery pack it ran very well, but again slowed and then stopped. So I have not made a video of this, (no change).  So now I need to figure out why is it slowing? what am I missing or doing wrong.  I am not ready to use graphite brushes yet. There has got to be something that I am missing.  I am not trying for over unity. I want super efficient with plenty of torque. With the two coils I am getting nice torque, but it slows down and stops.  Some one on youtube suggest my timing. I have tried different angles on my magnet rotor, but no difference.  Arrrgh, this is getting frustrating.
