Three weeks ago a friend called 'round to pick up the guitar amp I'd fixed for him , then he started talking about his unicycle .... The result of the conversation is this gear unicycle hub . Thought you might be interested: |
Joules:
I do love those angle grinder gears. |

One problem I found is that they're hardened which makes them a bit of a B'stard to turn ('though carbide will cut them) Tapping head anyone? |
Joules:
You really need to grind them to final size, used them in RC turbine helicopter gearbox's, and balanced them too. :dremel: is your friend. Did you also notice that the full mesh is off centre. I do like your tapping head example, is that a project under construction, and will the drawings be available ? |
