OpenMotor

I've always loved motors. I had the nutty idea to design an "open source" motor that could be printed and built using nothing more than magnet wire, some patience and a few off the shelf components like skate bearings and the like. I developed a parametric openscad script for designing the coil forms and structure of the motor, printed a few pieces then got pulled away. This is what I was able to complete. The idea was this was to be a simple 3 phase induction motor. The electronics required to drive it would be complicated, but the motor itself is dirt simple, 3 coils and a core. The SCAD script generates all the pieces.
