Re: Calling all Mechs! (Torque calculations)

I have,
the problem with both a hex shaft and a key (aside from myriad of nightmares I've gotten from using keys & set screws that ultimately lead me to use pins instead) is that I have no way of creating a hex bore (or key bore) through the steel bevel gear. In addition, the wheel hub (that sits on top of the gear hub) also has to receive the torque load.
