    My grandfather was a research engineer at Bell Labs during WW II. He taught me a great lesson when I came to him with a non-functional electric motor out of one of my toys. "Sometimes you just have to take it apart, try to understand how it works, then put it back together." It worked then, and has served me well ever since. I have a bit of reputation as a fix-it guy, but really, I mostly just take stuff apart and put it back together.

I had a lot of time to think in that store, the job wasn't terribly demanding mentally And I arrived at the conclusion at one point that pretty much every single thing in that store was different colored and shaped bits of plastic, sometimes with a bit of other stuff like electronics involved.

    The engineering on that thing is amazingly complex, as is the actual design. Considering all the work done, I hope it sold well.

    My marbles fell out a long time ago, think my son used them and sold the agy shooters, then gave them to my nephew, but at least remembered my morse from 45 years ago, Hah..sneaky devil. Man, just thinking of the mold for the magazine/fire control assy was a brain bender...then someone had to make it! Had me going on the fluke...thought it was going to be the leads after all...nice to be able to get parts for them. Thanks for shooting the nerf poop with us, I didn't smell anything after blowing coffee out my nose...Again...think you improved the performance of it too by the size of holes. Best! ~PJ

      Go slow when you take it apart. Just pay attention, or do what he did and take a video of it so you can always review it later if needed.
      It also helps to have a decent size, flat work space to lay everything out on.
      Practice with simpler things and work your way up to more challenging stuff and it will be easier.

  • @spehropefhany
    @spehropefhany 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Another great video, thanks! BTW, at 13:38, the current measurement wires to the shunt should go from the small screws (inside ones) on the shunt right back to the meter, and the "broken" power return should go through the big screws (outside ones) on the shunt. If that makes any sense. The instructions are often not very clear on these, but you want a Kelvin (4-wire) connection and you'll get a significant error if it isn't done that way.

  • @nic_muses
    @nic_muses 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Current chopping stepper drivers (basically all of them these days) will give you that sort of behaviour. They rapidly switch electricity to the motor coil to achieve your set current (6A) using a PWM scheme. The driver and coil inductance can be thought of like a switching power supply that regulates for output current instead of voltage.
    Mechanical power out is torque x angular velocity. That comes from the electrical power going in to the motor. Electrical power to the motor is set current (6A) x voltage sent out by the driver. Electrical power in to the drivers is what you’re measuring. The conversion is far from 100% efficient and your meter may also be missing the high frequency components being drawn as the driver works but the meter will give you a rough idea of the machine load.
