Making PERFECT coils for my axial flux alternator (DIY wind turbine) 

I didn't have to watch the whole video to know this is the most simply brilliant coil winder of course from a young fellow, we need your minds your fresh creativity, thank you for sharing

these generators remind me of a model T generators and Henry used Flat copper ribbon for his coils which needed no extra space for a wire across the top and gave good amperage

Thank you for posting! I'm working on a miniature VAWT for a college project, and this setup is exactly what I needed.

You sir are a genius. Great execution and attention to detail.

Love this video. The work you do seems to be very well planned and executed, the video (which i don't expect from engineer-type people) is also very nice and fun to watch. Thank you! I'm just surprised you don't have more subscribers.

Dude that is a sweet looking coil winder gig. It has a very clean look to it. From what I read if you want over unity use high frequency pulsed DC voltage. That is what Tesla had discovered. Tesla considered AC power to be a failure.

Okay thank you. Beyond making a magneto I found something neat; to compress the negative pole inside the wire in a continuous loop. This must be done in sets of 3 sines or multiples of it, then reset. I have an idea for a pinecone shaped coil so using many of these inside a bowl shape will spin off the ultimate 'mass' peak of the positive pole; heavy ions/positrons as energy of both poles but neg in bias centers to top of inverted bowl. I'll have to draw this up in blender.

Thanks for the very detailed vid. Very nice done!

Damn nice & excellent job dude! nice to see some quality work for a change.

You have mad skill young man

Nicely done.. i like the natch for the wire.

Very Nice and neat work ! Appreciate it.

Wow amazing , good work !!!

Here in the US, crazy glue or super glue, it will take the varnish off the wires and cause a short if they become jarred. I've seen people tape theirs but this looks bad and isn't heat resistant. I would almost recommend lacquer or the high temperature paint they use on BBQ grills to hold things together.

Great video, remember ventilation when your working with those glues :D

Great video

Great video. Hard work

nice work

aplausos de Mexico ,, un joven explica y lo pone en prectica sin tanta charlataneria ,, aplausses ,, from Mexico ,, a young man show it with out too much bla bla bla !!! my simpaty """"

very cool method.

Very nice young man :)

I dont like coment about hight temperaure glue. Since the first, this boy do well and carefully with allot of patient. Its what scientis need person like him

have a go at making this bro!

:-) good job

nice. ...one question voltage the coil and amp? thanks for sharing

I need to borrow your jig. Just kidding. Great job.

merci

I wish you success. In lieu of instant glue, wrap thread to secure coils. Apply varnish, or wood sealer to the thread and let dry for a day. You can also use wood glue. Your instant glue has hazardous vapors and so does your cfc spray. I wish you lived in the USA I would send you materials for your project. Maybe somebody in your country could give you the supplies you need. good luck.

Hi, great job. What are you spraying on the super glue?

Can anyone recommend a good technical [hands on] book on how to build electrical motors and generators from ground up?

I use a 675watt soldering gun, but still have serious problems making that work. Is there a good solder for magnet wire? Best luck I've had actually is melting the aluminum itself with polypropylene and crimping 2 ends together. I've sanded ends after torching and tried soldering but don't like how I can't trust the connection.

This guy wears a T-shirt of something that was created years after. Mind blown.

can u pls tell me how to calculate the no. of turns of coils and how to know the size of coil and height and its center distance

I'm having trouble making a coil join ends with another coil and still be conductive. Burning , crimping , soldering, none seem to work. What is the trick? Also is there a term for variance of ferrous property in wire? I have some .023 that is not magnetic at all when I place a magnet on it and does nothing when I apply voltage. I'll have a new meter tomorrow to check this over, meanwhile ...?

I see you say 1.25 mm for the wires what is that in gage.......nice video over all.

isn't the glue going to melt with the heat generated by the current?

I need some coils what do you charge?

I saw someone else answered this question but did not see an answer. What were you spraying on the coils after the glue? Why were you doing this? Very interesting, thanks for sharing this. Peace, Reese.

Any "glue" does exactly the same thing, it grips what it contacts, in this case the coating of the wire. To combat jarring you can do as he did in the video and make sure that you use enough glue so as to lock everything in place as a single unit. A small dab of glue might do as you suggest, although it's doubtful since the wire itself wants to maintain the bend. The best method is to use high temp casting epoxy to completely encapsulate the coils, but it's unnecessary. His method works fine.

Tell me please the name of the soundtrack!!! :)

Excellent German engineering! Zair Goot! Zair Goot!

Have you had any problems with the superglue and the wire enamel?

ahh sorry you have write mm in the movie heh sorry but where do you buy this wire? i have been looking on the web but i think it is very expensive in 1mm or more .o)) i live in denmark near your country almost heh .o)) so maybe you got some got webpages? .o))

Do you have a diagram of this ?

how many mm or inch are the wire you use?? .o)

why a double winding? More Efficiency? So you have 3 phases, 3 bifilar coil why each.

oH that's why... I must get copper. Wish I'd never got aluminum. It takes 1.6x more of this stuff to do the same job, and I need to get the most out of my neodymium magnets. Hey, Tesla stated once that coating magnet wire with a metal+crystal material would increase it's potential many fold. Ever hear of any such wire being made?

I think you would like a crank arm just a bit shorter.

You can improve your design be leaving less air gap in your coils, instead of making them into triangles it would be more efficient to make them into more of an elliptical shape. Since voltage and current are induced by a conductor cutting through magnetic lines of flux, if you are able to increase the amount of lines being cut with the same shaft rpm you will generate more power.

would U like to sell some coils?

Why my mum worries about my experiments...? She thinks I'm mad... And you can do whatever without your parents saying anything? Good luck on your researches, one day you'll be engineer!

OMG does your shirt say deez nuts? In 2012 wtf #time traveler

Nice coil winder. Simple. A hair tie would help you out, I wear them to keep my hair under control. Just stay away from the man bun thing.

dude

just put all your glue on at once then kick it all at once!!!! too much switch back and forth of products

nice work
