My planetary drive on the hydraulic pump started to let go in the second video that I posted a few days back so yesterday I put together a new one. The drive that I used this time is all steel (the ring gear was plastic on the last one) and I only used one set of planetaries instead of two. The pump now spins at around 5k so the movement is much faster and it is way more fun to operate! I had my calculations wrong on the original drive reduction so it was turning much slower than I thought( around 1300). At least now I can dial in the speed better through the mixing.

Oh... I also got a new toy last week...
