Re: Chain Drive Question

Just some friendly advice (for next time) go find the formula that will tell you the center to center distance of the sprockets so that the chain fits and no tensioner is needed

Err that is nice and all but I really doubt you would be able to get an answer that would really work nicely. You are probably still going to need tensioning. Anyway here goes the process.
Chain Length=L
Center Distance(Distance between sprokets center)=C
Pitch Diameter of Larger Sprocket=D
Pitch Diamter of Smaller Sprocket=d
Errr wow is that confusing or what. I hope someone can find a simpler form than what I just typed. Instead of typing it I scanned them. Unfortunately its sideways.
