Motor for Chester Champion Mill

[Ian PParticipant @ianp]

Did you realise you were replying to a thread that has been dormant for seven years Tim?

I came across the thread last night and something odd in one of the pictures made me curious, I assumed the original problem has been solved long ago and whilst I thought of copy/pasting the picture into a new thread it would probably still have needed a link to this old thread to put in context.

Any idea why part of the picture is mirror imaged?

The label has been put on upside down by someone in China who is unfamiliar with European characters. If we had a label with Chinese characters on it I think a lot of us would not know if we had got the right way up or not. No mirroring of characters required. There is an illusion that works in a similar way.

Now I know I'm thick!

I got fixated on the mirror image bit and just did not think there might be another way.

Reminds me of a PCB I designed a long time ago, It was pretty simple and laid out with tape, there was no silkscreen or text but I wanted to put a number or identifier to make the track side obvious. I chose 'K47' because there were no curves involved and the numerals only read one way.
