I am currently working on (shorts)
Midschoolfool:
Gusset 22mm euro BB arrived. As did the Proper sprocket. I should now be able to sort two bikes and finish them properly.
Midschoolfool:
Very productive day.
The flooring for the loft came. F me it was heavy. Managed to drag that up there ready for installing.
Changed the sprocket on the Barcode to the green one I bought, then fitted the red Primos with the Ti axle to the Fatboy with the 36t Profile Imperial. No pics, as I was just too busy. The Fatboy still needs a chain, then I can crack on with the building work.
Midschoolfool:
Yeet.
Midschoolfool:
Getting pissed at my own stupidity/frustrating ways to show sizes/pissing my mate around making useless parts.
So I needed one of these for my brake. And I ain't fookin paying that for 2p worth of metal ffs.
This was the pic sent. I IDed the height properly but this confused me enough into thinking it was 40mm wide. Hint, it isn't it's 45.
So I sent erroneous measurements to my mate who then modelled it (came up wrong size, seems it was a common theme)
From my SVG. Sadly before I realised my error it was too late and the poor sod had already made two.
Feck :LolLolLolLol: He's not happy bless him. Just hope he makes me one wide enough now :LolLolLolLol:
The back piece I can machine myself using my machine.
Do note I didn't send him holes to machine. I want to upgrade the plate and make it better. IE, instead of having a square pole piece on the plastic to sit in a cutout on the plate and one screw I am going to, you know? just use two screws in the first place. Can easily machine that, and the cable relief strip down the underside middle.
Midschoolfool:
OK so blunder averted somewhat. My mate is going to make me another. Phew.
Another engineer pal of mine pointed out that the block is not acrylic. And that acrylic would most likely shatter :LolLolLolLol:
So after IDing what is was (Delrin nylon) I bought the correct shit eh.
Must say it totally looks like a match to be fair.
