Part two of the series. An introduction to motor types, reading labels, and examples of projects I have made from these motors. I focus on reusing motors salvaged from appliances and other sources. Steppers, BLDC, PMDC, single and three phase, universal motors, and more.
If you want to chip in a few bucks to support these projects, please visit my Patreon page.

@A_Tower @Jeremy Fielding People who know how to teach, probably. So many obvious questions he fails to answer in just the first few minutes. Why handwave hp when you can simply mention whether this is electrical or mechanical (we know it's the former, at 746 watts, but why would a novice know?)? There are four instances of this kind of thing in the first three minutes. Such a shame. A good teacher always takes the opportunity to tell you more, not less.

And the depth and attention to detail to the things that are actually critical to know and understand for those of us who are actually into making instead of just watching.

Even if they don't really appreciate it, that moment you show it to them and it works like how it should be. Priceless! Thank you Teacher Jeremy. You are a natural teacher. Very patient and it feels like you won't scold me if I accidentally make a mistake somewhere in my project. Thanks again!

I spent several hours in the wee hours of the morning Driving through alleyways in some parts of the city where people put theirs spring clean up trash, and up and down every other street in that city. Just bought a lathe and a mill that should be here Friday. So far my wife’s been a good sport. But she hasn’t seen inside the shed yet😂

As someone who loves to tinker, has no formal engineering training, and gets in over his head all the time, i absolutely love your videos. All the things I've always wanted to know about motors and other things you post, but never had the time to look up or got wildly confused when I did. So, just wanted to say thanks for making the content that you do!

This is an excellent video. I can't thank you enough for the label deciphering! I know I could probably find it dryly presented in some book, but your explanations are so easy to listen to and understand. Of course, I'm going to go through the video and write this all down but, without you having explained all of the notations, my cheat sheet would be worthless to me within days.

This video caught my attention because I've been having trouble with my 5 horsepower Ingersoll air compressor motor, and trying to make sense of everything on the plate of the motor was confusing. I like how you talk about using treadmill Motors a lot, last year I made a electric wire stripper using the motor and rolllers off a treadmill. And it works awesome LOL

I'd be interested in learning more about adapting motors to pulley systems like you have in your bandsaws. How to adapt a motor to a certain device speed, yet staying within the performance specs of the motor.

Jeremy, listening to you is like a zen meditation... you are humble and have a tone that is so approachable... I think of WWJD (What would Jeremy Do) when I face my class. BTW... I had a 5 hp motor that was running a Hydraulic pump fine in Pittsburgh but when they moved the equipment to Connecticut it would not cut it... the voltage dropped from 230 to 208 and the current went up and would blow the fuses. Needed to change the motor for the new location. The challenges of running near the edge.

Jeremy, Treadmill Duty: this rating means moderate use for the first month after purchase, followed by a sharp decline in use and a sealed housing to protect the motor from dust once it's moved into the garage to be stored for 20 years.
