Re: Fisher Price used on Arm?

As much as i would like to purchase a pre-made gear box from andymark /=,

i really want to do my own gear box for my fisher price motor.

Does anybody know where i can purchase cheap, reliable planetary gears and small gears to construct my own gear box?'

I understand i have to gear down at least 124:1 to use the fisher price motor, so im planning on using 80 teeth gears with 13 teeth gears 3 times, but i don't understand the terms of a gear. What are the specs for the FP motor gear(without the given gear box)? [i.e. bore, face width, pitch diameter, face width, Diametral Pitch. hub diameter, Outside Diameter, pressure angle?


Oh yeah, Max, about your reply, i do have a coupler from 2004 but is bolting a sprocket onto that palstic sprocket strong enough?


I'm still uninformed )=
