Re: Aluminum chain?
Our vote is for cutting down sprockets... as long as you have a lathe..
We cut a few holes in our sprockets and turned those big heavy hubs down and literally cut pounds off of our robot... example an 18 tooth sprocket weighed 2 lbs when we started and ending up weighing 1 pound !!! and that was JUST turning down that thick hub ... I even did it!!! and I am only a physics teacher!!! LOL Bob |
