Thane, you bastard, sending me a free rotor, giving me complete instructions and doing quality demos with unambiguous results.

Good job Polarbreeze saved me from you trying to um, er  wait, what are you accusing Thane of PB? Going to the effort and expense of sending me free stuff!

Go away and die Polarbreeze, it is abundantly clear to everyone you are full of it, you will not visit a demo despite living very close by and you make arguments you know not to be true as proven by your answers to my 5 questions some pages ago.

Sorry if I just made the rudeness rep of this thread a little worse but I am trying to reduce the 'sly underhanded twerp' population of the thread.

DARN WHERE WILL I GO NOW?

ANYWAY AETHER22, YOUR ROTOR SHIPPING COST IS ABOUT $50.00 CANADIAN.
KIM WILL SEND YOU HER PRIVATE EMAIL ADDRESS AND YOU CAN DO AN INTERNET MONEY TRANSFER AT YOUR BANK. YOU SHOULD HAVE THE ROTOR AND MAGNETS BY NEXT WEDNESDAY.

CHEERS
Thane

JustMe, it's not a question of if we are crackpots or not, because we are.

it's an issue of if we are RIGHT or not, which we are.

Right nuts then. You know, I bet you anything the collective they would sign off on that...

THE BORG COLLECTIVE?

we are watching 

Reluctance is futile.

Whoa! excellent, I expected it to be more than that, I have that in my paypal account thanks to a donation of, well $50 (US).
So if I can pay by paypal that would be best.

I just tried to replicate it using a jury rigged system, I had ruled out using a solid (wood) coupler between gen and motor (for some reason due to vastly different gen and motor axle sizes the 2 hole sizes would not match up at each end despite starting with the smaller size drilled through the whole piece) but found surprisingly that hose worked despite the diameter differences. (in part due to it fitting over a nut on the generator axle of the same diameter as the motor shaft)
But when I just now added the steel piece between the motor and gen the steel piece is flung outwards centrifugally and the hose is too flexible and allows it giving it a terrible unworkable wobble.

Ha, I just looked it up and the donation is 48c should of paying 50 CAD because the Canadian is now worth very slightly more than the USD.
Kinda funny given how I've heard the US insult Canadian money.

Next Wednesday, that's also faster than I had expected!

By the way I found a neat way to bench grind a rod with a flat perfect finish, it is quite hard to do by eye but if you put the rod in your drill so it turns you get a nice flat finish.
