Thanks Neil, I have talked with them on the phone already. They are searching the warehouse for the part.

So far the repair is holding, we will see how it holds up under a load.

Thanks everyone.

Well no luck on repairing the teeth, or finding a new part. I was able to lock the cone pully to the spindal shaft. Just reduces the options of spindal speeds, we can deal with that. Now we are waiting for the heat wave to pass.

I did get some parts in, pinion bearing covers. I did not think that the abs plastic would hold up to well, and there was an alignment problem. So I redesigned the covers and had them made by the students in the class. One cover was rejected as incorrect.

After deburring and fitting to the covers I drilled the mounting holes. IT went togather pretty nice.


One step closer

Small update, still awaiting parts maybe they will be finished soon.

In the meantime I designed an 8-71 Detorit in 1/16th amd 1/14th scales.
I have all the parts drawn but still need to dimension them.

One question that I have not been able to answer is how the A/C compressor is mounted.

If any one has some input please feel free to advise me. I was going to post some pdf files but they are to large to post so here are some screen shots.

Your ability to build aluminum parts with hand tools is second to none.
I'm inspired to attempt making parts I would not have in past. Your parts show what a artist you are.

I'm convinced now that those how call Picasso a artist have not seen your work! Joe
