Although magneto's are a topic of great interest of mine, enough so that I bought the book, my plate is full, so to speak. I am getting to that age where I can consider it a function of wisdom to allow others to go out and reinvent the wheel (magneto).
Thanks to the back to the future franchise, anything regarding flux begins to sound suspicious, especially on the internet.I read posts like this and kind of half suspect that the poster is just making up words to pull my leg.
I have read the book, a good part of it anyway before I misplaced it here somewhere. Luc's post made me take two hours out digging through boxes in the basement thinking it might have been filed away. I bought it mostly for the theory, and was paying attention to the designs to unfold the underlying theory and methods of construction. I would recommend it to anyone. I have an ocean of fish to fry before any practical application, and then I have to find it, of course.
There's "Building the Minimag", by Bogstandard, see the last video below, http://www.modelenginemaker.com/index.php/topic,356.msg2780.html#msg2780
