    My grandfather had a motor like this mounted to his work bench to turn grinding wheels. It looked and sounds just like it. So cool to see it again 60 years later.

    After watching your videos for 2+years, your ability to construct shelters for your self and your cat, your mechanical skills, and your video game expertise, Safe to say QN - you would survive the zombie apocalypse

    I like have your own terminology for some of the parts. You have some great skills at problem solving and diagnostics for electrical. Hope you can do more stuff like this.

    I did something similar to an old double shafted motor that came with a table saw that my Dad bought for my Grandfather back in the 1970s.
    That motor is now powering a 4 inch jointer in my shop.

    The bent shaft may be making some of that extra noise.

    Could've painted the tag then use a piece of tape to lift the paint off of the lettering.

    You can repaint that tag. It'll come out good as new. You can use a pin, toothpick, etc. and dig out the letters if needed.

    Wdym this video only has less than 1k views upon making this comment?? This is like the best restoration video ive seen that has commentary on it

    K Jason, it’s time to do an “About Me” video, nothing too revealing of course. But we need some background info - like are you an Engineer, a uni student, Nerd of all trades etc.? I’ll go first, I am a geek nerd enthusiast myself, I’m a nurse, I live in eastern Canada, my favourite colour is cobalt blue and I have 2 cats. Another good video! 🖖🏽 Go…

      Yea sometime in the future Id like to make a video like I think about it sometimes. Once I'm a little more comfortable being on camera Ive only recently been filming myself on camera still getting use to it all Hope you understand - Cheers!

      @@QuietNerd Absolutely Jason, of course I understand! Don’t do anything you don’t feel comfortable doing on your channel. We all know the internet is full of Troll’s & mean spirited people & it takes A LOT of moxie do RUclips especially an in person video - (I know it would unlock some fears & insecurities if it was me). You keep on doing what your doing & I look forward to your next video! 🖖🏽✨

    Pls put it in the camper thing you made

    @nancycook3733 10 месяцев назад +1

    Just by chance came across your camper trailer build, very cool job, only question is how far did the 12 volt battery get you ? As in what was your range of travel? And did you incorporate a solar trickle charger to ur battery, liked how you rebuilt the motor not many can actually do it, great job looking forward to seeing more goodies from you.

      Point being you can get a can and re-insulate the coils
