S&M construction open for bizz nizz!

Good to know for future plans. thanks . Hey Mario, reading on last page I see a post about slop in the swing bearing. When I had mine apart the set screw on the pinion was loose. The shaft and pinion are on a d shaft so pinion will not slip but with that set screw loose it did give a bit more slop. The gear reduction has some to start with so that loose pinion just gave more. Pretty easy to get to also. The main gear and everything in the swing bearing housing was good so you don't have to take any of that apart. And unless motor is loose from gear head nothing inside to "tighten up" just end up trying to figure out how the gears go mack in after they fall out when you open it!!!

Man that is great, having all that on remote control!! Keep the pics coming on your progress of the conveyors too!!

Thanks Coop. I have a few more " honey do list " things to finish and I'm free and clear to get back in Rc building mode.
I'll keep ya's posted on progress for sure.

I didn't explain the swing bearing issue correctly. It's not a gear backlash or left to right slop. It's a front to back thing. Seems like more swing bearing deflection or upper structure movement than before. May be caused by all the root ripping and abuse from slamming down
Just wondering how Yours has held up?
