      ​@@ericlotze7724 Tip: Don't put any characters right before or after the word you want in bold, for example:
      *LEGEND*. Will not get bolded because there's a dot right next to the asterisk
      *LEGEND* . On the other hand, does get bolded because I placed a space between the last asterisk and the dot.
      This is also the case for the first asterisk, just backwards:
      .*LEGEND* doesn't get bolded because there's a dot right before the first asterisk
      . *LEGEND* does get bolded because there's a space between the dot and asterisk.
      Hope this helps! It also applies to _italics_ with “_”

    To wind a motor coil use a long dull tip syringe tip mounted to a pen shaft. It allows you to "place" the wire between the slots where your fingers don't fit. Try bending it to different shapes if you need. Long sowing needles eyelet bent to a hook could also be used. Ideally, you want to fasten the stator to a fixture so you can use a second hook tool to pull loops into position with one hand while guiding/"paying out" the wire with the syringe tip or needle in the other.

    Great video!
    A small side note, one thing to keep in mind when using cheap rare earth magnets: Buy in bulk, more than you need!
    Their Tesla field strength is all over the place, if you want to build high efficiency motors you need to measure and sort those to find similar Tesla strength.
    If you don't do that you can introduce nasty harmonics confusing your motor driver.

    I was so wrapped up in how great this thing was I didn't catch that it was definitely gonna burn itself up until you mentioned it. It seems like in a cycloidal drive with steel or aluminum hardware, it would be vulnerable to galling in the long term, which a planetary drive isn't. I know there are steels and coatings to deal with galling but they're not usually cheap.

    Just a tip for getting interference fits together easily. Cool or freeze the aluminum part and heat the steel part. Usually putting the aluminum part in the freezer is enough but depending on how you clearanced it you may need dry ice or liquid nitrogen. Heat the steel part to 300F. Usually only one of these methods is needed to get a tight interference fit together but sometimes it takes both.

    how nostalgic, havent seeing a graphing calculator in use since a decade ago. Thought they all got replace by smartphone app by now. I remember programing my ti-calculator to solve fluid dynamic problem that show all the intermediate calculations, so you get full credit during exam. I think ti-basic back then only support single letter variable. So you only get to use 26 variables in your program. So I had to use array buffer to store additional variables. tons of goto statement. Debugging the program was a pain in the ass.
    But I'm glad to see graphic calculator is still being use by student today.

    7:50 Slight correction, when the output of a gearbox is the opposite shaft the gear ratio of a cycloidal drive is r= (P-L)/L where P is the number of pins and L is the number of lobes on your gear. This can usually be simplified to n-1 compared to the number of pins. You can also use the casing as an input or output, in those cases you have an n ratio to the number of pins. I've been playing with some cycloidal designs myself for some university projects as well.

    Very impressive. I've machined a number of cycloidal gearboxes and have found them to be a real bear to get them to run without binding. To get this kind of torque is a great result. The other thing I've occasionally wondered about is whether you could print a harmonic drive using nylon or something similar for the flexible ring.

    If you want to make it even more compact, here is my suggestion, instead of using central eccentric shaft, use 3 of them located between outer diameter and inner diameter of the cycloidal disk. place 3 double eccentric shafts with helical gears at the end of them. Now put a central gear that motor will drive. This way, you can play with reduction ratio much more. This configuration will give you approximately %20 less volume and mass while specs are similar to your model. Cheers
