Re: pic: WCP: AL Gears?
Here is an other example of a recommended 0.003" gear clearance:
My ancient Atlas 618 lathe uses changeable gears to set the ratio between the spindle and the lead screw, allowing one to cut several different pitch threads. The owner's manual (from the 1940s) explains that we should use a piece of paper as a clearance gauge between the gears when setting their position: Put the paper where the gears mesh and tighten, then pull the paper out, resulting in correct clearance. |

Re: pic: WCP: AL Gears?
Madison,
I apologize for the delay, But it did not die. On the thread: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=99327 I mentioned everything but gears will be available today and gears will be available next week. I am receiving about 1200/2000+ gears today or tomorrow sometime and teams can start placing order for gears next week. I wanted to wait till I had the gears in stock, quality checked and made sure I wasn't sending out *garbage* to teams. I will have Colson hubs available to order today along with bearings/chain. I know my team: 1323 along with a few other teams are waiting for these. Site Link: http://wcproducts.net/ -RC |

Working on it. Got everything in but the gears at the moment, stuff is up for purchase: http://wcproducts.net/ Below is the facebook link, as I've started to get the gears in and sending out for Ano to Indiana (Nituff). AndyMark should have some of the gears for sale soon as well. https://www.facebook.com/pages/WestC...54930131245194 Timeline as of now: -Everything but gears are up for order. -Gears: around 4-5 sizes this upcoming Monday/Tuesday. Rest of the gears or so end of week 3/beginning of week 4. I do apologize for the delay, its just taken a while due to the holidays and some parts that I had to reject due to mistakes by the supplier. -RC |

Re: pic: WCP: AL Gears?
If we were to order gears as soon as they were available, when could we expect them to arrive? I guess specifically, do you mean that you would be ready to ship at the dates mentioned? Or just take orders? A shifting drivetrain is looking like a distinct possibility this year, and we might look at using these gears if they are available.

Re: pic: WCP: AL Gears?
Yikes, okay. Is the 56T 1/2" hex going to be one of the early ones available? I mean, I don't have other parts done yet, so it's not like I'd use them if they were in-hand at the moment, but I'm thinking about shipping time and whatnot. I'm sure you'll post back as soon as things are ready.

The first batch is actually on its way to Indiana, should be available to purchase 4-5 business days from now. AM/WCP should have some gears up for sale. The common 35T/48T shifting stage will be available. The next batch has all the large sizes. Which I am calling today sometime to finalize dates/times. Which is what I mentioned to David above, Week 3 late or super early week 4. The last batch are all the small gears which the hobber/shaper is going to have done within a day/2 day turnaround after receiving them. I don't take orders ahead of time because a) I don't have the item in stock/can't promise something I don't have yet. b) Once they become available, I can ship them out the same day atm. If there is a ratio you are interested in, please send me an email. I have been keeping track of all the possible gears customers have asked me for. Ready to ship out the same day I have stock.
