Steve, All,

Thanks for your kind words. Yes the motor was modified as per the usual
technique. The flats are actually pretty small (about 1/3 diameter of
the rotor, the size has escaped my memory). The stationary electrode
holders aere made with simple rectangular section Al tube and angle
brass. I couldn't afford to machine solid copper blocks, etc.

Cheers,
