Hi Guys Anyone got any picture examples of flywheels they have made without a RT. I appreciate that some method of dividing may be needed but without the extensive use or need of milling with a RT. I`m just looking for some ideas... and of course I don`t have a RT. Any examples appreciated. Chris EDIT: just a quick addition - what is the 'standard' method of attaching the flywheel to the crank shaft. I`ve tried a grub screw but it doesn`t look great especially on small flywheels. |

Second flywheel used a taper lock. More pieces but less chance for wobble. Robert |

Foozer - nice idea regarding the saw blade! Very clever :smart: CC - same here and I was wondering if anything more elegant could be created without a RT. Chris |
