Hi Ed,

After running the coil for about 5 minutes, the spinner looks as though it
is revolving approximately 3 revolutions per second, or 180 rpm.  I'm going
to take DC's advice and raise the spinner's pivot point tomorrow afternoon.
I'll place a timing mark on the spinner and video tape it during daylight
hours.  I'll put the video on my Web site and post the URL on the List.
I'll try to do this early enough tomorrow afternoon so that our moderator
should be able to post it before dark MST.  This is so much fun!

Cordially, Hal in Tucson
