08:30 PM gaze__: hey anyone have a suggestion for a cheap solenoid I can get that's happy to run at 100% duty cycle? Something maybe that'll fit in a square inch or smaller and would be appropriate for activating a brake shoe for tensioning magnet wire
08:36 PM gaze__: and will run on sensible voltages
08:40 PM gaze__: huh?
09:02 PM rue_mohr: I get them from photocopiers
09:04 PM gaze__: oh that's a nice idea
09:08 PM rue_mohr: 24V
09:58 PM Tom_L: the idea is that a counterweight could be such that it puts drag on the spool
