Unfortunately the big enough laminates are only found in microwave ovens and they are normally welded requiring a lot of precise and dangerous grinding or having to bend them to separate them. Are there any retailers which sell the actuarial E I lamination? That way I can just stack them however high I need them.
Thanks however I realized E & I can be split with a good 4lb hammer + chisel and also separating individual laminations can be done in the same manner. I just had a bad experience the first time I took a mot apart. However I would still like to know how much those silicon steel laminations go for. Also I see you reside in Canada and I in Los Angeles, I also can employ a high powered dremmel since they are relatively safer than an angle grinder.
Do you know if cars have transformers similar to mots?
I found retailers unfortunately they provide product in mass and I would end up spending a minimum of ~$1000 for a ton. I will simply purchase used, relatively inexpensive transformers off ebay going for ~$20 and I can employ laminations from an alternator.
I dont see what we would talk about, unless you have a bunch of mots andcan sell some via ebay or something, let me know.
