Can I build my own armature growler?

Can I build my own armature growler?

Can I build my own armature growler?

(OP)
I repair domestic appliances & power tools as a side line (excuse for a hobby). The power tools are sometimes an issue with suspected armature faults and the lack of a growler to test for shorts etc. Has anyone built their own growler or is it a project not worth the effort? Should I rather try and purchase a ready built factory-made unit?

Any advice or links to suitable literature / plans / instructions would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Andrew

Um, eBay has at least seven used ones for less than a homebuilt would cost you.

Hello Andiri

For growler construction find a book called "The Growler" by Samuel Heller, this book contains the most important design parameters.
