Excerpt from The Dynamo: How Made and How Used

The interest awakened in machines for the generation of current electricity, consequent upon the demand for electric lighting and transmission of power, has induced many amateurs to turn their energies to the construction of small dynamos, such as might replace a battery of eight or ten cells, without the disagreeable concomitants of changing acids, cleaning plates, etc., provided such dynamos could be afterwards worked without the employ ment of power. Such efforts have not generally met with success, owing to the fact that no work of a practical nature has yet appeared in which the construction of the dynamo is fully explained. When the principles which control the manufacture of such machines are understood, dynamos can be constructed with as much ease and certainty as induction coils; and in the following pages these principles will be elucidated sufficient] y to enable the amateur to carry out his work in an intelligent manner.
