I have several I bought over the years from eBay and other sites. It’s easy to find one in decent condition for under $50. The trick is finding one that doesn’t go, "ting-ting-pang ting-ting-pang ting-ting-pang ting-ting-pang…." or "ting ting ting ting ting ting ting…" Not sure which is worse. 🤔

Nice little restoration. Not sure but those small felt rings around the brass bearings I think are supposed to be oiled to give those bearings some lubrication? Also, put a rubber grommet around the electrical cable where it goes into the sheet metal housing to stop them getting cut into. 😀

Nice work but the motor will not spin backwards if the wiring is "backwards", it's an AC motor on AC power, that only works on DC motors and DC power. Just like you can reverse the way you plug a non polarized plug in and it doesn't change direction. Old fans and wall outlets did not have a polarized plug (one side bigger than the other) so it could be plugged in either way. .

We have nothing against a clean pair of hands dismantling objects decades old covered with rust, grease, grime and sometimes unidentified yuck. A restorer can almost be defined as holding a 'proxy' from the viewer. Bare hands, not good! Gloved hands, better! Many medical procedures do not require gloved hands, but are still widely used. Often this is for the comfort of the patient. I think you get the idea. We do not want goop on our hands if even by proxy.

Bad restoration, motor with open windings or short circuit
@CatalystRestorations
Жыл бұрын
I mean....it works just fine now. 🤷♂️ Can you please offer suggestions on how you would do it yourself? The stator body is fabricated as one solid piece and does not come apart so even if you wound new coils there's no way to physically install them in the stator body. This is a cheap motor, it was never meant to be disassembed and repaired like that, unlike open body designs which allow you to wind new coils and nest them in the body. You could also try re-enameling the coils as-is but there's absolutely no way you could get full coverage on every wire surface even if you did something like dip the entire motor in enamel. Sourcing an entirely new motor also just doesn't count either.
