Re: Overdrive gearbox?

Hi Dan,

We're trying to use a beatbox for our launcher, but want to gear it up for a higher speed and range.

I'll look into the AndyMark parts you mentioned, but I think we found a solution we may use.

The beatbox had hexspacers provided that fit on the output shaft;
Since we want the smallest gear on the output shaft and the largest gear to turn it, we're going to drill a slightly larger hole in the smallest gear, and then weld one of the hex spacers into this hole.

This will allow us to place this small gear on the output shaft, and allow for an upwards gear ratio.
