hey nice job man, that would work great with a dc resonant system, what is the base material? looks like ply but wouldnt that carbon track and short out? im trying to biuld a simlar gap but stuck on as to what material to use, i have tufnol fibre board but it has a cotton weave running through it.
exclelent craftsmanship! though it doen't look too synchronous :P if its an induction motor, it looks like its a 3000 rpm, 2 pole motor. remove the armature, and mill two flats on opposite sides, giving the armature inductive "handles" for each peak in the ac cycle to pull on, (hopefully) causing the motor to lock to the ac cycle.
im having the same problem, its not running in sync with the supply frequency, because you can see the orange and blue "phases" spinning about the rotor as the incandescents blink on and off at 55 Hz, excelent assync rotary gap tho!

Add some dummy load and it is more interesting ;)

What the max BPS is possible?

Technically, 240bps with this specific motor. (1800RPM)

Just wondering, but wouldn't it be 480bps. 1,800 RPM is 30 revs per second. And with 16 electrodes per rev. That's 480bps.

Yeah, I realized this later and edited it to say so. Must of skipped this video.
