So , where did Steven Gibbs was getting his T Bar to build an Electro Magnet for HDR ???
From pictures I've seen, Steven welded on a smaller diameter bar to the end of the 1" iron bar thus making it into a T-bar.
"Do you know how long the wire have to be for the magnet and how many wraps i have to do to the T shaped Core as far as i know its sopposed to be very specific number of wraps. Einstein if you know that info i would appreciate if you tell me that info."
I got an ohms reading value from someone with an electromagnet made by Steven Gibbs. The value for the finished electromagnet is 11.2 ohms using #21 AWG magnet wire. There are charts available that you could look up to see how many feet of wire that translates into. The latest info from Doc 05 is 7 layers of wire (fore and aft for each layer) with insulating tape between each layer and then wrap the whole electromagnet with insulating tape. I used silicone tape to finish my electromagnet. This tape comes in different colors and is heat resistant up to 500 degrees F.
