Thanks jg, I will look into metabo brand. I'm not sure what type of transformer it was, it was from an old dot matrix printer I broke own a while ago. Had a lot of copper in it but it was heavily shellacked and had paper wrapped with each layer, the motor was small but was a good one for me since I hd never broken one down before. Surprisingly, I followed the tips from this site and it went smoothly. May have taken me a bit longer but with time will come speed.
