Description

Most of the vendor are selling starter posts made out of Bronze. That’s ok, but Copper is MUCH better, especially when you’re trying to cram as much of that 6v battery power into the starter as possible. I start with at 3/8″ copper rod, and then thread about 1″ using a 3/8″-16 die on my lathe. Then I cut them to size w/ a hack saw. Then its over to the mill where I drill a 1/8″ hole and then mill a 3/32 slot for the field coil winding.
