  10. Good news: latest coil is 3x more powerful. Bad news: it consumed enough juice to fry my $90 motor controller. Trying new design today.
  11. Argh, looks like I caught a twitter virus. Please don't click on any of the links related to NBA championship or gameshows.
  12. Electromagnetic coil motor works! This 8.5" x 2" diameter coil moves a steel bar as plunger: http://bit.ly/2iuZCd

  14. Busy making a very large electromagnet today.
