Oh dear - major cock up - flywheel machining wellington

Post by mike »

HI All,

Anyone have a lathe that can grip 380mm? I may have sheared the key off and scored the bajeesus out of the taper on the flywheel :oops: twice :oops: :oops: :oops:

I need to take out 0.1mm or 0.2mm out of the taper on the flywheel to clean it up and try and make the keyway nice again. Anyone have access to an old(or new) lathe that can handle this :D worth couple of boxes of the good stuff at least :twisted:

we all love to help an idiot out :roll:
