Next some Thanet stuff for those not particularly interested in Thanet motors
A Ramsgate fishing smack note the smoke coming from the winch engine
next yesterday's answer
this is the old Waygood Otis lift motor in Granville house, not the one in use now I hasten to add.
The only old Waygood Otis I have seen with an AC induction motor or a brushless motor
There are loads of old Waygood Otis DC motors and until about 1972 DC motors had to have carbon brushes and a brass comutator which stands out very clearly on Waygood Otis motors. from about 1972 a combination of integrated circuits and power transistors could be used to make a DC motor work without brushes.
don't scroll down further if you came here to escape the depressing news about the pandemic
that filler photo was Margate Lido
At the moment the UK's death rate per head of population and increase in new cases both stand at nearly the worst in the world
I think important to understand that this means we are doing much worse than america at the moment
Here are the coronavirus statistics from the euronews website

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
