Let’s Build The S.H.O. Drive!
• This is a guide to a series of videos where I will construct the world’s first S.H.O. Drive.
• This will be the first drive motor in the world to have a coil that looks like an S, or an H, or an O, depending on which side you look from.
• S.H.O. also stands for “Side Hung Over”.
• What good is this for? The best way to know is to build one yourself and show it! So let’s begin!

Measuring devices

(Top)

Measuring Devices(Equipment)• This project involves many measuring devices, including analog and digital thermometers, a laser tachometer, a Milli-Ohm meter, an RMS meter, a LC meter, an Anemometer, a magnetic pole detector, and a metal detector.

Rechargeable Batteries(Energy)• Some of these devices come with non-rechargeable batteries. When these run out, they will need to be replaced.• Where possible, rechargeable batteries will be used after the old batteries are used up.

Fuses(Equipment)• Most multimeters have built-in fuses. These fuses are designed to burn out when overheated due to excessive current.• So as a matter of preparation, I have purchased compatible replacement fuses.

Safety Gear(Equipment)• Since my wood-working operations will be limited to sanding and drilling small holes and grooves, I will use a Western Safety Dust and Particle Mask so as to not inhale any saw dust.• I purchased this from a Harbor Freight Tools store.

Visual Evidence(Protocols)• After the S.H.O. Drive is built, tests will follow.• The plan is to run extended duration tests, some which will run for hours, and others for days.• An appropriate video recording device is required to provide a visual record for these tests as they happen.
