I've had some scraps left over from some other projects. Since its allready fiberglass, its very strong when stacked up and glude together as laminations.
Its very easy to cut with a router circal cutter. I use a scrole saw to cut the shape and location for the coils. I drill holes through the edge to form the coil wire exit.
This formate keeps the coils in the proper position and location (no drifting).
The amount of reson is reduced a bunch. I also use the sheeting as a magnet template. I leave this template glude to the steel disc perminatly.
This stator will be secured to a 12" speaker basket. This gives the stator 360 degree support. This whole asembly is very light but very strong. The speaker baskets makes a perfect mount for the bearing and shaft assembly.

The slots on the sides alow me to used zip ties to hold coil shape. Latter I replace the zip ties with white cloth tape. During handleing the coils expand a littel but the precut cut out in the stator form squishes them back into shape.
Next step is bearing and shaft assembly. Then its about time to do some RPM, prime driver requierments, volts at rpm, amps at rpm, watts at rpm, temperature of coil at watts for time running.
Ofcourse all these test will be done in star and Jerry Rigged. I can tell you quite confidently That start will run quite hot.
I was at the retail store and a big crowed of people came in. I tryed to finish up to fast.
