Re: pic: 1726 week 4
We made the green tensioners with oil impregnated nylon rod (2" diameter), turned on the lathe.
The white material (UHMW Polyethylene) that the chain guide is made of would work well too, I suppose...we had the nylon rod left over from last year, so we made the tensioners with it.
Also we added an internal/external tooth lockwasher between the tensioner and frame rail to make sure it would not slip.
