[excess-3]

Hello allvol
    I'm looking at the Example : 1000 of 8421 = 1011 in Excess-3
  dose that mean anything over 1000 + 3 equals a 1 or anythin over 3 equals 1 ?
just a question? I don't understand how this works.

[PCB drill press design]

Hello rybitski
    Dremel  all ready makes a small drill press stand that you can attach you drill to. It only cost about 30 bucks and it pretty sturdy, don't know I guess if you can come up with something better for less that might be good.
    I bought a cheep drill press for under a 100 bucks, a small benchtop one. Best 100 bucks I ever spent.

[ferrofluid in stepper motor]

Hello Ldanielrosa

Heres is what I understand about Ferrofluids.

Ferrofluids are superparamagnetic and have very low hysteresis.

The particles are usually iron, magnetite, or cobalt, and are smaller than a magnetic domain, typically 10 nanometers in diameter. The surrounding liquid is typically oil or water (or possibly wax). Surfactants are used to make the suspension more stable, so that the micelle-trapped particles repel each other due to steric hindrance effects.

Why would I want to put small particles of stuff inside of my motor?

[Help with transformer]

Hi guys
  The more I read this form the more i want to start my own thread Called In LayMen Terms.
    fist off nutty boy
          Where did you get the transformer.? If you got it out of a piece of old something there should of been a ratting on either amps or wattage. That might help us.        Or did you buy it from a store? they should be able to tell what it is.
      What kind of test equiment do you have and how much experence do you have?
                          There is a lot of questions we have too. Asking is a good start, so don't stop.
