Yes we are tired of your photos, hurry up & finish it and post some videos of it working already! Geez Reg?!

Where did you source that large gear & pinion from? What's the dia of the pinion, looks a little big? Is there smaller ones to pick from?

HAHA! I knew someone would ask... It's a modified Honda Z50 primary drive... with rubber dampers. I hate spending money and I'm a hoarder so I thought I'd try it... might not be strong enough though

It's reduction is about 3.7:1 and I'm using a 17 rpm gear motor(12v)so it will give me around 4.5 rpm all said and done. the 1:1 turns at 7 rpm so it will be a little slow I guess but I may run a little more than 12 volts so we'll see.
