A method for making an electric motor stator. An annular disk is cut so as to create a radially-outer ring portion having slots and a radially-inner ring portion having spokes engaged with the slots. This step is repeated on additional disks. Then, the radially-outer ring portions are stacked together to form the stator outer shell, and the radially-inner ring portions are stacked together to form a multi-pole assembly with the aligned spokes forming the poles. Coils are wound around plastic sleeves which are each brought to, and placed over, a corresponding pole member. Then, the multi-pole assembly is positioned within the stator outer shell with the pole members engaging the aligned slots. Finally, the joined-together radially-inner ends of the spokes are cut to create narrow slits.
