Making a flywheel
Brass_Machine:
Heya Bogs... I am going to move this over to the 'how to' section.
Very nicely done. Your flywheels are works of art.

Well...... I`ve spent most of the day installing a new radiator in the dining room.
All is working very well, almost tropical..... Mrs Drillin thinks I`m very clever. :thumbup:
Looking at those flywheel pics, I feel very inadequate, again! :(
Magic, John!
David.
Darren:
You are clever David, you are :thumbup:

No offence intended at all, but I really do hate comments like this. It is not your inadequacy at all, but your lacking in the confidence to try something new that holds you back.
Please stop putting yourselves down because of the success of others.
I am no-one special, and I have no specialist machinist skills other than what I have picked up thru experiences during my working life, and a bit of trial and error in my workshop. Where I do score is that I never let any opportunity to try something new get away from me. If you don't try it, you will never know if you can do it. You get successes and sometimes spectacular failures, only then do you find out your real limits.
OK, I can get what I am doing into usually an understandable format of text that most people can understand, but that is it.
Anyone who wants to do these things, can do (of course you can't if you don't have certain equipment), it is only your imagination that needs to be given a quick kick up the backside.
Darren summed up this post perfectly, each operation is a word, and words make up the sentence.
All you have to do is rearrange the words into the sentence you want.
All my posts are doing is passing information on, while I still have the chance to do it. Eventually that will stop, and hopefully someone else will take over from where I left off, and fill in the gaps.
I marvel at the other things that people get up to on this site, and only wish I had my time over again to be able to learn their skills as well.
So, try it, you never know, you might be the next master of flywheels, or whatever it is you want to do.
John
