u.r.a - variable capacitor
This is (almost) the build so far. I've now added an anti-rotation cam to
the front, restricting the travel to 180 deg. and a rotor connection to the back. -- Mick (Working in a M$-free zone!) Web: http://www.nascom.info http://mixpix.batcave.net Filtering everything posted from googlegroups to kill spam. |

How did you cut all the plates out to be so similar? I think I would either jumper connect those two top bolts to the bottom ones (rather than leave them floating), or replace them with nylon all thread covered by a length of rigid plastic tube to act as a spacer. -- Regards, John Popelish |

My original intention was to just heatshrink the top bars and, possibly, link them to the rotor. -- Mick (Working in a M$-free zone!)

Normally you'd do that to the most mechanically complicated section - the rotor. The stator, being fixed, is easier to isolate. RL |

u.r.a - dual gang variable capacitor

The stator, being fixed, is easier to isolate. This circuit (using the single gang unit) has neither side earthed - which helps keep things interesting. :-) Here is the first temporary build-up of the dual-gang unit. Just done this to see if all the spacings work out and so find out the best way of assembling it. At least this one gets the rotor earthed! -- Mick (Working in a M$-free zone!)
