Hey guys,
I got an email yesterday from a guy who said he got one and was wondering if I had found a schematic. I never found one but i asked him to count the windings on the coils and send me a few pics of his chassis. I hope he doesn't disappear since I have nothing to offer in return.

Will knowing the winding count make it doable Mike?
Is there anything else I should ask him for if he is willing to help?

If you

1. Clean the rat poop,
2. Clean the chassis,
3. Deodorize the rat smell,
4. Exorcise rat ghosts,
5. Count turns AND
6. Mark the directions of the windings (IMPORTANT)
7. self-immol....oh, wait, I need you to bring my cabinets....OK, sacrifice a black chicken, a black she-goat and feed it all to a black cat of my choice.....


Yep, possible.
Pay special attention to 5 and 6.

Kirk,
Did he send pictures or the link? Where did he find it. I'm curious especially how it was listed.
Thanks,
Henry
