Looks like an ordinary induction motor to me (asynchronous), but I'm no expert. Link2


The rotor is a solid combination of iron and copper parts as visible in this cutaway Link2

That looks like something you might see above the altair in a church.

I'll believe ya, but if you look real close to at the center of the "eye" it looks like the end of a HV chicken stick and a purple arc going across to another electrode.

You could also just zoom in 400% and see that too :) Whatever the image is, Was just called a Whale eye just because it just happens to look like an eye, and it's gray :D

I planned a while back to just harvest parts from a giant oscilloscope I picked up at a hamfest, even though it has better specs I think than my much smaller one it takes a lot of space for what I thought was a primitive high end transistor unit... I was stupid to think so. It turns out, the thing is entirely Tube based and I can never turn down something based on tubes! I might clean up the inside, and make some Acrylic walls and make it into a table or something, where I can still use it but it looks nicer.
