noob needing cable and chain help PLEASE

[studysession]

So I have been surfing this forum and posting for a few months. During that time, I have been building my own bar stool cart for a pit vehicle at the track where my brother races his drag race car

I need help -
1> I have the harbor freight blue 6.5 hp 197cc engine and need pictures / tutorial showing me how to hook up the throttle cable.

2> The chain that came in the mail - I have never shortened a chain or put a link into a chain.

Thanks -
Keith

Trying to use one of those chain break things and broke the tool and not the chain.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Greetings from Central PA!!!
You can grind the pin and use a punch to drive the pin out, add master link, and bada bing, bada boom.
Also, I need some CNC done, PM coming!!!

Just checked your site. Do you do aluminum or steel 1/4" thick? I need a brake bracket made for my kart, and I would consider 5-10 more if you're good. :wink2:

Here is a link to the CAD/CAM software I use -

I could do aluminum but - I would have to order metal cutting bits, but simple answer is sure if I can cut it all from one side and the drawing is in SAE not metric. If I have to flip the material over, I am not good enough to realign it with the cutter and have both side match evenly yet. I need more practice with that part still.

Make sense?

I used to CNC aluminum when I lived in England. Since I came back to the US, I mostly been focusing on wood.

The master link that comes with the chain to link it together, the pins are not long enough to fit through the thing.

What can I just put through the hole I have to attach it with without using the link that came with the pin?

Thanks -
