I don't intend to get into an argument in my first 10 posts :lol_hitti Induced current is the generally accepted/commonly used term for what we're talking about - an induced current implies a connected circuit, whereas an induced voltage only applies when there is not a complete circuit, which...

No worries. Always happy to help those who haven't had the privilege to have the education that I have had.

This is the right response, but obviously lacks a few explanations on things you don't understand (yet). A motor is not a simple resistance - Ohms law (V=I*R only applies to a simple resistance). The coils within the motor act like an inductance in series with a resistance. The way an inductor...

Pencils are next to useless most of the time - They have little adjustability (different temperatures for different sizes of wire or for larger thermal loads), and the tips are generally not as interchangeable. A well-calibrated, temperature-controllable iron is completely necessary for doing a...

Haha, I've been lurking here a few months. Just learning as much as i can before i start posting. But thanks anyway! :)

Small world haha... Guy from Palmy here as well. Welcome to the forums!

Looks mostly right, but I get a bend allowance of 0.319, using a k factor of 0.5 (as the bend radius is larger than twice the thickness) (90\360)*2*pi*(0.171+0.5*0.064) That gives an original width of 2.738
