Re: Cheap Torque Measurement?

Ever throught about making your self a little adapter such that you could attach the end of the motor shaft to a torque wrench?

Crank up the motor and see how much torque it takes to stall it at a given voltage. Of course, if you let go you have a nice long torque wrench flinging around on the end of your motor, which strikes me as a bad thing. And if you don't let go, then your still stalling the motor for as long as it takes to get the reading, which also strikes me as being a bad thing.

Actually, the whole idea strikes me as being bad. but I like the notion of taking a measurement in such a blatantly inaccurate and hazardous manner.
