Default Re: geared motor

Here are the pics of the foam that I bought. It cost me $15 for this piece so it's not that expensive. I used a bandsaw to cut the outside and a razor blade for the inside.

I think Joe is right about the rpm of the gear motor you need. Personally I wouldn't buy anything that was over 200rpm or it will be pretty fast. My skidder for example has 152rpm motors with a 2.6-1 axle and 7 3/4" tall tires and the speed it quite good.
