thanks roy for the education and inspiration.
at the moment i need a bit inspiring .
both the story's are great . i always enjoy to see work well done.
it gives me the incentive to try harder and do better.
camera work is very fair.
couldent you just remove the bits of remaining plywood from the stator.
soak it in water make it swell then when dry should come unstuck.
be nice to see that mill running with a nice pic of the amp meter .
its a ill wind that dos no good

Yeah, I thought about that too. For the moment Im just going to leave it. The resin went off really quick. I added less hardener than was recomended and mixed with ATH but I guess the ambient temp was high... i should have backed off the hardener a little more, or just waited till dark. The main mistake was not linseed oiling the mold before greasing it. The resin will dissolve the grease into the wood. Sealing the wood first stops this from happening. This is just one way to do this,...with what I had lying around.
Have Fun!! RoyR KB2UHF
