Small Electric Motor

thingiverse

These are the printable components of a small electric motor. More assembly instructions will be added once I get mine to work better than it currently does (I made an error in winding the motor), but this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0p2QTE26VOA) explains most of it well enough. I used this motor to power a small Lego-electric car. If you print it at 100% scale, lego axels fit through it nicely. Print Settings Printer Brand: LulzBot Printer: Mini Rafts: Yes Supports: No Notes: This is too small to print without a raft/base/ whatever it's called on your printer. Post-Printing Materials -The above printed materials -Enameled copper wire (I used the first link wire for my motor) -Neodymium magnets (Second link - these are terrifyingly powerful. Actually read the product warnings when the arrive) -three 9-volt batteries -Copper sheets -Copper wire to connect batteries Enameled Wire: https://www.amazon.com/Remington-Industries-28SNSP-25-Enameled-Diameter/dp/B00I53B2TC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485644325&sr=8-1&keywords=enameled+copper+wire Magnets: https://www.amazon.com/CMS-Magnetics-Powerful-Neodymium-Diameter/dp/B01I1XNV0I/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1485644561&sr=8-2&keywords=neodymium+magnets The other materials can easily be found at a local hardware store Step 1 Watch the above youtube video. Everything assembles logically, and it will hold together if you pay enough attention to the details. I will elaborate more when I have more time. Step 2 Use your motor for some good purpose. And stop reading this, go protest Trump. Create a twitter and remind him that he lost the popular vote. Do something. Refugees are welcome here!
