Lin Guoer does it routinely, so you can see what's involved. Not too hard. But she fails to explain enough about the windings. Maybe you can study them to see what goes where.

the windings are arranged. I have a lathe, but would rather not have
the fiddle - and it *is* a fiddle, believe me - so would plum for one
already in full working order.

Look up Lingouer on You tube. Some CCP funded bird who actually does
appear to be able to hand rewind rotor and stator coils for big electric motors and generators whilst sitting in a rural backwater of china.

I lived in China for several periods over the last fifteen years and I saw
at first hand that most girls are very capable.
They still haven't quite got the technique of soldering.
In article <0d1db6c9-bbdb-4dcf-85ac-636c3b316120n@googlegroups.com>,Impressive for anyone, but I won't be tackling that as a DIY job.

My problem is how she got to do all that on You tube without the
assistance of the Chinese communist party...In short how much of it is actually faked...

A lot of the "build luxury mud hut in jungle" ones are faked, they sometimes slip-up and leave excavator tracks in shot ...
