Sourcing Free Magnet Wire
I source my magnet wire from old-style TVs which I have been salvaging whenever I run across one.
The quality is pretty good, and the cost is low.
I'm looking to build something like in this video, but with the armature going along the length of the coil. Also, I will be using a Newman commutator.
I like the orientation that he has with this motor, but instead on one coil, I would have two, that is, one above and one below the armature. Also, I would be using a high impedance coil or high voltage coil of a microwave oven. Again, I would be using a Newman commutator.
