Picked up the disc for Swarm this morning and got the 48330 speedo yesterday for the etek. Latest pic is on profile without drive motors in place.
Well I now have all the bits, lets get it together for August!
Gary that thing is freakin awesome . It gets better eveythime i see it !
Woo, cant wait to see that thing going. Looks pretty long though, I wonder how itll handle.
what grade hardox is it gary??
No idea how it will handle. As far as i am concerned, if it moves, Im happy!
No idea what grade it is. To be honest it doesnt matter. 2cm of any grade will do damage and hold itself together.
Looks scary to me, tried it in the garage yet and kill the family car ?
Just a quick update. Latest pic on file.
I have now welded the A frame disc support together and bolted half of it to the chassis (bottom half still to be drilled).
I now have to machine the disc shaft mechanism, take a bit out of the box section to allow the etek to sit correctly, create re-inforcing plates for the A frame corners, machine a support for the etek, sort out the drive sprockets, wire up the insides, paint and test.
Not a lot more to go really
thats gonna break
(we all hope!)
What an evil machine...
Back to two drive motors then?
(the four was overkill anyway, and I cant see this monster in a pushing match...)
Youve got something to brag about now - that stings bigger than Geoffs even!
Looks mean. Carnt wait to fight it lol. Better not scratch our new paint tho! (pic on profile)
