| Brass_Machine:
Some spacing issues have been correct. Hopefully, this is the final version. I hope to cut this weekend... |
| DMIOM:
Eric - how are you going to keep the gear lube off the belt? Dave |

Just going to lightly lube it motorcycle chain grease... just cause the stuff is sticky... Otherwise, the gears running the wheels aren't lubed either. |

I would have thought that, for the amount of use it's going to get, the gears would last most of the rest of the life of the machine even without any lube? Or how about some graphite lube if that's available? Anyway, this is top stuff, a real MadModder project - I'm loving it :) I may have to do something similar to a lawnmower, just for the hell of it! |

These motors, which I am sure you can get over there, can apparently be hopped up to 27+ HP. I am thinking a go-kart winter project might be in the works. |
