[@kenp3L]

You have 6 slots on one array and 10 on the next. If you had made it with three arrays with a 3-4-6-slot configuration (or multiple thereof, say, 6-8-12), your siren would produce what musicians call a power chord.

[@TheSqualle34]

This is one of my favorite channels! Top 3, easily. I can only hope to ever make anything remotely as awesome as some of the stuff Matthias does.

[@chippysteve4524]

Hahaha you nutter! I love it. A bit late now I suppose but a very simple way to space out your blocks evenly on a circle is to use a pair of dividers. e.g. 7 pieces - set dividers to your first rough guess and walk them around the circumference seven times.Then keep adjusting until you land spot on,right where u started. For a lot of woodworking you just don't need numbers at all.Just a grasp of basic geometry,dividers and a roofing square. Craftsmen were building amazing things for thousands of years before the tape measure was invented and with dividers you don't get any rounding errors. :-)

If that can is aluminum and the axle on the rotor is steel you're going to rust the steel by having them in contact like that. Galvanic corrosion.

"make an ESC for induction motors" Easier said than done. I spent a couple months doing the hardware and software for that and still didn't get the analog filtering correct.
