wow they are approaching PETG.  I ignored the resin market as I thought it was for creating shiny bobbles but @Jeramie brought it up last week in his car mod.  So I was looking at the Anycubic photon model X as a medium size resin printer but was  put off by the low tensile strength.  Maybe time to reconsider for quick high resolution prints for smaller parts.

Nice link Nink. Man I can can make flexible tires!

I got a Mars Pro for Christmas. Really happy with it and a lot of online support.

I have a review video on my channel for the anycubic mono X. It’s a great printer. But I’m getting very interested in some of these new resins. Most standard resins are urethane. I’m slowly stocking up on various mix ins like Tuff which adds a small flex to the parts making them less brittle.

Yes FX Artist.  You got it!

I just repaired my damaged BLDC, so I thought the clip fits perfect into the thread...:D

Nice: if I didn’t know better I would think you are learning in preparation to design your own BLDC.

I actually learned a lot by doing this...and I am a lot less afraid now in case I will have to do it again!

Its amazing how simple and elegant the whole concept of BLDCs is!! love

As I stated earlier in this thread I grew up in my grandfathers motor rewind shop and every motor on the planet works the same way. Some differences: single phase and three phase windings, ac and dc. We had a cool machine that would create the windings then each coil was placed by hand in the stator, then the stator was dipped in resin and baked. The resin vat was built into the floor and held 100 gallons of resin. It had a steal door on top but I always envisioned as a kid falling in it and being preserved like mammoths in the tar pits! Lol.

Anyways, You did an awesome job rewinding it.

Awesome 3 in hand rewiring. We have a resin tank in the factory just like Will's dad but it holds 10,000 gallons!

Here's a pic from my day job, installing a 2.1MW BLDC used as a generator on a wind turbine. The team I work on did the design and prototype testing.
