I tried it. It would sync OK but not enough torque to sin any usable disk.
The motor had a 1/2" stack.
I would think a motor with a 1" to 1 1/4" stack would work with a small dia.
thin disk, perhaps PCB material.
I have a motor with 1 1/4" stack, but it is in use. If I find one that is
not being used, I will try it out as I am curious to see myself. Something
like that could be used on my medicine coil.
