\I am going to hand wind the stator coil,looks like a lot of the dirt bike crowd is having good luck with it,so here I go!! I'm probably teaching Granny to suck eggs, but remember that the tighter and neater it's wound the higher the output will be. Thanks Luke,Ive never wound a stator before!Talked to my electrical engineer buddy in length on coil winding yesterday,he said 'dont expect the finished coil to look as neat as the factory coil',but it should work just as good.He told me how to splice the wire as it WILL break,keep the leads long as they may need swapping,different final coatings,etc,etc..I'll post some pics when I get started on it.. Made my winding machine with an old cordless drill,some perf angle,a socket that fit indide the wire roll for a spindle,fabed up a turning fixture and got to winding;   I would stop every few minutes and spray some clear enamel on the windings to help seal it,ran out of the 200 foot roll about 2/3's of being finished,back to radio shack when they open up..  Got another roll of wire after the snow and now have a total of 400 feet of wire on this little coil!I soldered the wire ends to the lugs and coated the whole mess with a non metal type of epoxy,looks kinda ugly,,hope it works,I'll keep y'all posted!   Got it together tonight,kinda scared me,it started on the first kick!Here is a short vid;  To make winding easier: Make yourself a little wooden dowel with a 45° diagonal hole through the end and thread the wire through it. Stick the small dowel in a larger dowel handle for a good grip. Feed the wire through a lengthwise hole in the handle part so the wire exits at the end of the handle. |
