Pulse Motors- Your building them wrong.

[tinman]

Hi Brad you don't know me yet but I am a long time member. Only not really that active on this forum. Have been active in the field for over 20 years. Ron Pugh and Gyula will vouch for me me if needed. I am interested to join this one. Have 3d printers, lathe and mill ready to go. I know electronics write firmware and do PCB design. Let's do this.

Kind regards,
Steven

Sounds good Steven.
Seems you have all the gear to make a good machine.
You will need a good heavy flywheel, around 200-400mm in diameter.

...Can you give me the diameter of those round neo magnets you have in that lot...

Thanks for all the info. The round neos are 12.7mm so a little bit on the big side perhaps.

I just ordered a scale that goes to 3 decimal places and a 6 inch long, 12.7mm diameter soft iron rod. I have a dremel tool so I can cut the rod shorter if needed.

Currently searching for something I can purchase to act as the large spinning flywheel rotor part.

Hi,

I would like to join the project however I am not sure If I would be able to keep the necessary quality of my model. I really think that Inverted realities channel is the best channel on the topic and probably everyone here will agree.
I wish everybody luck with the project.

Those neo magnets will do the job just fine.
The idea here is to spend as little as possible, and use what you have lying around.
