Hi Tom,
Yes I am interested in building a motor. I would start with a small test rig like you have shown to get a feel for it. Then a small one anywhere from 1 to 20 HP for example. Although if a 20HP isn’t a whole lot more expensive than a 1 HP then I would go for the larger one as a first build. I’m not interested in anything larger than that right now.
Funds aren't an issue but I don't have much fabrication equipment. An old mill with a sloppy table, a band saw, table saw, small drill press, a good coil winder and a decent set of hand tools. Also, I have to tell you, I am a slow builder due to limited time.
I have watched your zoom meeting with Vinyasi and downloaded the files from his link. These are very helpful with understanding.
Thank you for making this information public.
