      ​@@ericlotze7724 Tip: Don't put any characters right before or after the word you want in bold, for example:
      *LEGEND*. Will not get bolded because there's a dot right next to the asterisk
      *LEGEND* . On the other hand, does get bolded because I placed a space between the last asterisk and the dot.
      This is also the case for the first asterisk, just backwards:
      .*LEGEND* doesn't get bolded because there's a dot right before the first asterisk
      . *LEGEND* does get bolded because there's a space between the dot and asterisk.
      Hope this helps! It also applies to _italics_ with “_”

    To wind a motor coil use a long dull tip syringe tip mounted to a pen shaft. It allows you to "place" the wire between the slots where your fingers don't fit. Try bending it to different shapes if you need. Long sowing needles eyelet bent to a hook could also be used. Ideally, you want to fasten the stator to a fixture so you can use a second hook tool to pull loops into position with one hand while guiding/"paying out" the wire with the syringe tip or needle in the other.

    Great video!
    A small side note, one thing to keep in mind when using cheap rare earth magnets: Buy in bulk, more than you need!
    Their Tesla field strength is all over the place, if you want to build high efficiency motors you need to measure and sort those to find similar Tesla strength.
    If you don't do that you can introduce nasty harmonics confusing your motor driver.

    • @BentFunction
