Attempting to Make the World's Smallest* Electric Motor
I'm a big fan of experimenting with things. And I'm an even bigger fan of experimenting with limits.
My take on this video
I'm a big fan of experimenting with things. And I'm an even bigger fan of experimenting with limits.
This video is exactly that - how small can the handcrafted machining go? electric motors, specifically.
And, I must say, I'm impressed. I'm relatively aware of how hard even simple tasks become at different scales, big or small. Even then, it's still fascinating how many issues could arise from seemingly unrelated events. Absolutely mindblowing.
This video comes with a typical calm, unrushy tone of Chronova Engineering. It also comes with plenty of experimental flavor. In other words, failures, reiterations, and progress.
Always interesting to see what invisible problems other fields face.

Superglue. Even tho everything was pretty creative in this video, the moment he put the whole dice on just superglue and "carved" some sides relying solely on that?
