Must go bigger
Great pics Ufopolitics,
I finished modifying the generator head last night. Experience is such a great teacher. The front and back end caps do work so I've got it back together without any fabrication there.
So I'll need to find a larger size motor to modify to couple this gen head to.
The treadmill motor is half the size of this generator. Don't think it will have enough torque to spin it up 3000 rpms.
I'll post some pics later.
What do you(or anyone) think, I have four old car generators(not alternators) with large commutators 28 bars on each one. It will take some real fabricating but can be done. Or as you said I should go with the four pole PM motor. Which I'll need to purchase.
