    Power window motors can be made into many things. I know that inside the turning hub however is a rubber cog. I believe that the rubber is there to keep the motor from over torque and breaking the safety glass.
    The homemade winch should not be expected to lift or pull too much of a load because the inner cog will strip and cause the winch hub to freewheel.

    I grew up in my Dad's welding shop. Yes, I touched a hot surface after my dad finished welding - ONCE . Yes, I got flash burns - ONCE . Yes, I cut my finger on some sharp metal -ONCE . It didn't kill me, and I sure as hell have respected those dangerous things all of my life. And because I grew up in a shop, I can fix anything, and I don't have to depend on someone else. I really appreciate this young man allowing his kids to learn from a small age how to work in a shop.

      Ditto the above...HOWEVER, I saw in just these few moments of video, serious unnecessary risk to the toddler. Most serious was the exposure to arc energy/light. This can very suddenly have permanent effects on vision. Less but considerable was the exposure to metal grindings to the eyes...especially since he's low and in the fall path AND they are always super curious and observant. I'm not a tree hugger or child overprotectionist...only the victim of eye injury. Otherwise, a nice job / project and you left me curious for the next...cheers.

    From my experience with window motors doesn't matter GM, FORD. Etc.
    Them plastic balls that bust.
    If you clean them up and replace the balls with nuts that fit a 7/16 head. You'll never have that problem again. Some will take a 10 mm nut head. Try it and see.

    Yes indeed I will honestly say I will like to see this one
    I don't think it will lift much if it will lift at all with out stressing the thing to burning up
    It is interesting none the less and if the experiment is a super tool we owe you
    And I will be in my shop trying to do what you did hope not to be crushed in production
    Of a nifty gadget that may have potential new mighty big question as far as the motor an the power of it however much weight will it lift and maybe a shall pully system to aid machanical advantage an idea of course
    Thank you for yours

    • @DIYTechRepairs
      @DIYTechRepairs  7 років тому +1

      Thanks! For this to work over longer time it need bearings on the wire-drum part. I have had mine running for the TV now for almost 1 year now and it still works like a charm. I did break the wire used once due to the drum wasnt good enough and it frankly just got cought and the motor itself didnt stop but pulled it apart. That wire used is capable of well above 50kg of lifting and it snapped :)

    • @DIYTechRepairs
      @DIYTechRepairs  7 років тому +1

      Dunno but depending on the size of the winch axel you could probably lift 30-40Kg or even more. its just a wild guess but they are damn strong for being that small

    Will keep this tip in mind if I would want to make a winch to pick up my car keys off the floor. Would a car window motor have enough torque to pull a 3,000 boat unto its trailer.? Guess you don't know until your try, or is it that you don't try until you know?
    A good car window motor will stop if it feels one of your kids hand or head sticking out of the window.

    • @DIYTechRepairs
      @DIYTechRepairs  4 роки тому

      A car windows motor will easily pick out a boat if you gear it properly. The motor itself is not what stops when pulling up the window on a modern car. Its a current monitor that does. The above motor is dead freaky strong in the gear ratio it have and easily lift 100+ kg as that was built :) I use this style for many different things like carports and other...
