Re: JVN Build Tip: CIM Pinions

I really wish we could get a bigger boss on the face of the CIM, like 1" maybe.
Also, for the pinions, which see the most cycles of operation, I like to use Martin S20XX series gears, as they're slightly harder and I've experienced some odd wear issues with the AndyMark pinions. Of course, if I wanted to I could probably harden the AndyMark ones.

Could i get a link to the gears you like to use

I saw 2274, a rookie team that had won the regional, gathered around their mentor. He was holding their trophy and saying, "This is what it is all about. Teamwork and cooperation. You guys did great." - Po-ser [more]
