>>928366>>928369The lathe motor is an old, 35VDC, PM motor salvaged from some old electronic. Electric generator on the exercise bike is from an ancient office Xerox machine. The latter I already made to power other things and recharge small batteries while on the computer.
>>928369Dremel motors are vastly different. Off brand rotary tools, like those from Harbor Freight have motors similar to this. It could indeed be used for an RC toy.

>>928382Very nice fish!
