I have found a step pully with a 5/8" bore. This has been fitted to the motor | |||
I have also started construction of a motor mount which will allow releasing tension on the belt to change gear... its a little ugly though, seems I have forgotten how to weld. Will soon be in a position to power it up and turn some stuff! lots that still needs to be done though: | |||
*make finger guard for gears/belt | |||
*rebuild teeth on damaged gears | |||
*build tool to correctly tension the bearings | |||
*get a nice big on off switch and saftey switch | |||
*get an AC node (to protect the machine as much as anything) | |||
