Hello Vman...

I really like what I'm seeing!
I've quickly looked though a bunch of your other stories.  
Somewhere I saw your looking for 240v@120rpm and another place a comment of 2kw
Is this still what your shooting/hoping for?
54 magnets?   what size and types?
It looks like it's getting to a size where your going to need neighbors to help move it.  You have a fork lift to help you out?  For it's size, I'd start worrying about how close you park your car (it's not a Delorien sp??).  If it has a metal based paint it's going to start sliding....

It's looking pretty good, testing it is going to be a bear!   Good luck!!

and if you don't mind, I'd like to steal your thread for just a sec and give an big ATa boy to Oztules (didn't wanna give it in his threads else it might go to his head)

Good fun, good work!

Hi Mark

 Yes,I plan on feeding a preheat tank with it.

 The 2kw is just for Ron :v)

 The tower will only be ~20ft.

 Yah i heard his head got so puffed up that he was allowed back to the mainland for treatment.

Hi Mark...
This all leads me to another question (I'm sure more to follow).

How much copper are you planning?  Looks like a lot, I'd ask in another way..  but I'm afraid your wife might be looking over your shoulder.

Preheating what?  looks like you may be able to heat your house this winter.

based on our spring weather here, winter looks like it's going to be a ... booger.
