Hi Jerry,

Nice work! I've held my magnets in place with steel shoes on top and a screw going through the shoe and threaded to a square armature. I tried both with bronze & steel screws.

I compared the output and it only made about half a volt less with the steel screws as compared to the non magnetic material.

This was more an experiment; the final armature looks much nicer :)

I type with one finger. Last night aftera 1/2 hr of typeing and picture posting, I hit the post button and the puter said post failed.

I got to tell ya, thats real anoying for a one fingered guy.

Rich is right. The aluminum discs rotate with the magnets as do the stainless steel screws.

I had problems with the magnets poping loose with epoxy and no mechanical berier.

This aproch will keep the magnets inplace. I"m also trying LOARD Fuser metal bonding adhesive. This is the stuff that auto makers and body shops use to glue metal pannels together.

This stuff is a 2 part mixer and has very small glass beads, gose on gray and dryes green. I think it will be very strong.

At first mix its fairly runny. I'm going to try it casting coil stators.
