Re: Need help designing keyway in gear
One last quesiton. It seems as if my brain has malfunctioned once again and I didn't order those gears when I thought I had. Anyway, I can't fully understand all the calculations but since you guys do, can I just ask will a .688 length through bore be okay, or do we really need the .940? Because all I can get locally is .688 through bore. Also, for that key stock you posted, is that a safety factor of 3 on the .5 length through or .94? Thanks so much. You have no idea how much I appreciate this.
