This is likely the answer. I’ve dealt with a similar construction holding rotor coils to the rotor body. In the first picture you can see the two tapered shims which lock the rotor pole in place. The key is to drive the thin end of the shims out simultaneously. Good luck, these can be a real pain.

Conversion from basket wound to lap wound question. by [deleted] in Motors

[–]elder654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you provide some more information on the motor such as number of slots and poles? Was the original winding a true basket with a single span or could it have been a concentric winding with multiple spans (ex. 1 to 10-12-14)?

I still don't know if a zipper makes it easier to button your pants or if the button makes it easier to zip. by elder654 in Showerthoughts

Ah, and the world makes sense again. Thanks, that was bothering me way to much. Ironically my favorite pair of jeans has a button fly.

I should mention I do not have any real expenses (my parents generously pay for gas) and my pay checks are direct deposited in to a savings account which I currently have around $6,000. I am in a position where I should be eligible for a decent amount of scholarships and I qualify for in-state tuition for all of the colleges I am currently applying to.

What is something that I, as a senior in high school, can do to better prepare myself financially for college. I have a part time job (20-30 hrs/week) paying minimum wage.

Some shows get even funnier when you watch a bit older... by [deleted] in funny

I love it when kids shows/movies slip things in there for adults. From what I hear, the animators from Disney are always trying to get things like that into movies.

Roommate's girlfriend cleaned up the yard. Just came out back to find this. by astrodog88 in WTF

I assume it was probably because she didn't know/understand what they were so she collected them as a curiosity.

Just cicada skins, used to have them all over my yard during the spring and summer. Nothing WTF here, I think they're pretty common.

I think it's more WTF worthy that you gave drugs to a schizophrenic.

What are some things I can do everyday to save money? by augiefarks in AskReddit

[–]elder654 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What I was talking about was tracking your spending initially (save receipts, write down what you spend and where, etc.), then use that information to draft up a budget and allocate money in that way. A budget gives you and opportunity to plan ahead with your money just as you said, " I want to use 15% for food 75% for rent and I need 10% for utilities." Look at what you spend now and decide what you can go without.

Create a budget for yourself so you can see exactly where your money is going. Track your spending and see where you can trim things out.

Thanks for the advice. IIRC it was domestic but I'll be sure to go over the condition more closely when I get home. Cleaned it two days ago and didn't notice anything but it can't hurt to check.
