Frizz,

I'll turn the drums for you if you know what you want/need. Mine are pretty simple. You want them as large in diameter as you can fit nested next to each other. And for width I just wanted the drum to be centered in the "window".

Now, for the tricky part. I don't like the way I attached mine to the servo, but I have had no problems with them so far. I drilled and taped the servo spline screw hole to something larger, probably 2-56 or 4-40 I don't recall which. Then a matching stud installed in the drive end of each drum and a pin in the off end of the drum which is held by the support channel at the other end.

Ideally you would want the drive end to be a spline to match the servo but that is way past my machine skills and tooling.

Jim
