Eagleeyes! Found it....

Will those wheels transmit 4000Nm in terms of traction? or will they just spin in the dirt? or will they spin the tyres on the rim and rip off the valves?
I think you will need wheels of a small...

Some electric motors can come with a worm drive. Simple, relatively cheap and you may be able to bolt the wheel(s) straight to the output shaft.

Spot on.
Tell us more about about your project.E.g. why you are going that way, rather than VFD; how you are setting it up; what circuit diagram and how you plan to get the synthetic 3rd phase close...

A small car may have 300Nm at the wheel in top gear. at max torque revs, but I doubt it. It would be more like 3 or 4 times that! Still in top gear!

In first gear, the assumption being that you...

....radius is half diameter. 456mm diameter seems a big wheel for a trolley like this....?

the force you measured is kgf (kg force) since it was measured at right angles to gravity. kg (or kp in...

Just came across this by accident: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ylr1ggdZZo

Another option these days are hub motors. They are a generation further advanced and there are no losses with chains, bearings, etc.
Like this kind of thing:...

A couple of thoughts.
Nm is a unit of torque or "force"against a resistance. So we need to know the "resistance" first, to work out the "force" required to move it. So the weight of the boat an...

There are a few videos on YouTube. I guess you've seen those. I've never seen one used in person....

Might be worth your while to talk to Oerlikon directly () or Sulzer Metco ([url]http://www.sulzermetco.com/). Oerlikon have two distributors in Melbourne and one in Sydney. I had intended to contact...

I'd use a 3.15mm electrode and 100-120A but do short welds all around. Steel to malleable iron welds OK. Grind the surfaces for the welds bright, so you get not surprises.

I'd be extremely surprised if they were imperial threads. I have two 9500s from more than 20 years ago. All threads are metric.
13.7 is probably right for a worn M14. But 11tpi is 2.3mm pitch which...

Graeme, do your grinders actually have M14 threads? Or are they M10? There are two versions of M10 threads on grinders: M10x1.25 and M10x1.5
As far as I can tell, ALL M14 threaded grinders are M14x2...

It depends on if your printer is supported. Mine are not. That's why I forgot to mention that. Slic3r only works with one of my 3 printers too. So I have to use a different proprietary slicer for the...

I was trained as a draftsman in the paper and pen era. When CAD became available for PCs (think IBM XT), I tried to learn the first time. I got lost and gave up. Over the past 30 years, I tried...

Consider this thread a record of a vintage machine tool.
In the meantime it was sold.

Just came across this thread after a long time.
So just an update: we changed our mind about moving far away. We bought a 1/4acre block in Bendigo and are building a new house and shed.

Hi Stu.
I strongly advise against trying cast iron fusion welding in this case. The amount of heat you need is HUGE. The entire casting needs to be red - and kept that way, with the welding face(s)...

That Myford already has a reversing switch. So please don't wind the carriage with the handwheel on the leadscrew while it is engaged for threading. Use the reversing switch instead!

Yes, the Biax uses 10mm centre mounting bolts. Of course that really is irrelevant for our adaptations - unless you intend to bolt it to a genuine Biax one day :)

You did a great job there! Love it.

Anyone here have a CAD system that can do FEA (finite element analysis) - and is competent at using it? That's really what's needed here to answer the question.

Weirdly, Jaycar don't seem to have them in their catalogue....
Here is a link to some in Port Macquarie: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/363014562017 for $2.36 delivered..... or 5 for $5.40....

You could always bolt on an angle iron if your don't trust your welding skills.... Although you welded the rest of the gantry. Seems to me this isn't anywhere near as critical as the gantry foot.......

With this setup you made, you can change medium quite quickly and easily. That allows you to use crushed glass to cheaply and very aggressively remove rust and scale; fine garnet to clean metal...

All good. Nice mechanism! I can see it now too.

I use a small mag chuck on my vintage C.C. Engineering T&C grinder. Quite successful actually.

I'd love to see your work! The video is labeled "private" according to YouTube and I can't access it....
Please make it public.

I used a little rubber grease on the tight bits. But it fitted on with a little stretch.
