Default OT? armature question (rotary inverter)

Sorry - the double post gremlin stepped in.

What Wes, said, the blobs are probably for balance. My WAG is the rotor
is out of a wound rotor
induction motor. If this be the case, you didn't get all of it from the
ebay seller. There should
be some resistors and a short circuiting switch connected to the brushes
that ride on the
commutator-looking thingies. IMO, you would do well to abandon the idea
of making a RPC out of
this.
