This fella has some impressive skills, and a good mind to go with them.  What a good show.
I don't know much about electrical windings and such, but it looked like a very nice job on that part,
not to mention the machining, (and it looks like he knows how to grind a tool bit, too).  That motor is a horse!
Oh, and I sure like his lathe.  Gives me hope.  : )

Thanks for the videos, Ralph!

Ralph, Dean

There was a series in either ME or MEW, about 18-24 months ago to make an Outrunner Motor IIRC.

Sorry, cannot remember which one.

I have a few modest talents. Knowing what I'm doing isn't one of them.

I thought some people might appreciate the work involved, Glad you liked them Dean.

Dave, I wasn't thinking of making one just yet..... Although it'll definitely find it's way onto my tuit list  :)



I was also looking at the maker of the last video of the little motor, he has some very nice bits and bobs posted not least this....



Pretty cool I think  :jaw:

The mag was MEW and the motor article was by John Rutter....

I've made a few of my own, but with the advent of cnc and cheap labour, the r/c market has been flooded with motors at a price which makes it cheaper to buy than make...
Still a good excercise in machining tho'.. :dremel:

Mebbe I'll post a few of mine to show you... :scratch:

OK, maybe not "uber powerful" but homemade motors none the less .... perhaps just lacking torque!
