What axle.

[ibrahim123]

Yh ill do what you said in the end. But is there a negative effect in having fewer motor teeth?

 

[r_chez_08]

Not that i can think of. You may be able to cut off your old sprocket teeth and machine new ones in, so you dont need to make a spline.

Ok make me an axle sprocket accordign to an 8 teeth motor sprocket and ill figure out a way to get an 8 teeth sprocket.

 

[r_chez_08]

Ok. Got the sprocket hub, and wheel hubs today, all look good

Okay. Is that everything? If yes could u pelase take a picture of all the things together so i can take a look at them? Thanks

 

[r_chez_08]

No axle yet, and i still need to get the steel and drae up a computer drawing of the sprocket. Btw i was going to make a split sprocket design, so it is in two pieces, because it is no harder to make and it is easier to remove.

Np axle doesnt have to be in the picture. I jsut want to have a look at how the other things look like

 

[r_chez_08]

I may as well take a pic of everything on the axle. Btw you may need to drill the middle hole on your wheel to 50mm instead of the current 45mm

 

[ibrahim123]

Why is that>?

 

[r_chez_08]

Cos there is a tapered bit on the wheel hub that needs to go through the middle.

 

[ibrahim123]

Allright. Can you sum up the final price of the items so i know how much money to put in the card?

 

[r_chez_08]

Ok, but i do not know what shipping will be yet. Wait until i get the axle and i will sort out the total (i will guess the sprocket weight.)
I have also drawn up acad drawing of the sprocket.

hi,
added everything up including shipping and the sprocket.
total for everything works out to be 185 euros. i previously said it would be 150 euros, but the sprocket and carrier are about 30 euros, and paypal fees and extra postal compensation will be about 5 euros.
if you could pay me by paypal that would be good. They will probably take a few euros, but i have taken that into account. Paypal is a safer way, as it means that if the purchase was to go wrong you could get your money back.
My paypal address is:
r_c_2008@hotmail.co.uk
Hope that is all ok,
i will make up a sprocket next week with 34t, and then post sometime next week. everything should be with you in about a week or 2 if all goes well.
I have also cleaned up the axle with some emery cloth.

The axle has 4 keyways at certain intervals. i will give you a diagram of them, however if you want the keyways extended or an additional keyway it will take me some time with a mill, so i would charge 3 euro + 1 euro per 50mm for each keyway if that makes sense, so if you wanted an extra keyway of 150mm long that would be 3 euro plus 3 euro = 6 euros. it would probably take me about an hour to do a keyway that long, so it is a good price. i dunno if you need more keyways though, depends on your sprocket and brake placement.

I will grab some pics

Here are the pics.
The axle with everything on in the approx positions where they could go:

The wheel hub:

You can see there is a taper in the middle, this is why you need to drill to 50mm (below)

Here is a diagram of the axle, with approx positions of the keyways. There are also circlip grooves at the end. i could get you a pair of circlips for £5ish

Allright thanks alot. Is it easy for you to send me some evidence that you have shipped them so i can proceed with payment? Its not that i dont trust you but ive got to be 100% sure

 

[ibrahim123]

Dont rly need anything else. 185 euros is fine

 

[r_chez_08]

Hi,
I understand, however, paypal is very sercure, and you can get your money back, like on ebay. However if i ship and you do not pay (i have to be 100% sure too) there is no way of me getting the money, so can i just say that i have over 2000 posts on this forum, i am not about to rip you off, however if i was to, you could just start a paypal dispute and get your money.
Rob
Edit: also could i ask a small favour? Could you give me feedback on the quality and durability of the sprocket when i make it, as if it turns out good, i may market these, or make some for my self for future projects, thanks

 

[ibrahim123]

Ok ill send the money over and yes ill give you feedback

 

[r_chez_08]

Ok cheers man
Btw i could do with your address,
I will make the sprocket then organize a courier.
