I'm re--wiring an old motor from a Western Electric oscillating fan from the 1920's or 30's.
I successfully re-wired it a few years ago, but one of my wires has now broken at a splice, near the place where the fan pivots.
Any recommendations to prevent that from re-occurring?
I have purchased some cloth covered wire from ebay, in hopes that might help. I'm hoping it will restore the original look as well.
Will that cloth covered 18 ga. wire withstand the pivoting?
Thanks,
Gary
