Awesome job so far Jeff- I really like the way it is all coming together- the only concern I have is the balance between the 2 hard whells and the expando- but you probably measured it all out already- and hey don't do what I did the first time I turned on my Expando unit- Forgot to put belts on the drums- ALMOST ruined the drums (thank goodness for a lose belt that was slipping and did not chew up the drums!)

Must be sweet to have a nice mill & lathe to tool out parts on. Don't mind me, just some machine shop envy on my end...

Hello,
I am not seing the images in this thread. It sounds like a very interesting topic - but not too easy to understand without the photos.

This happens in the older threads. THis one is almost 6 months old. The images are stored elsewhere and not on this site, so often older postings have broken image links. People clean their image accounts or change photo hosting services ...
As I recall this was interesting but nothing that anyone could do without a really good shop. I seem to recall he was turning metal on a lathe and bending sheet metal, and drilling holes on a drill press ... etc.
Round the web you can usually find lower tech instructions. All you really need is a motor, shaft adaptor, and a wheel or some discs. Splash guard and water system is a nice extra.
