Re: Karl's Amanco 3-1/2HP

Re: Karl's Amanco 3-1/2HP
Maybe a daft question but i'll ask anyway, does anyone know the size/dimensions of the gib keys that go in the flywheels of an Amanco 3-1/2hp, also the best place to obtain one?
Cheers,Karl.
Cheers,Karl.

Re: Karl's Amanco 3-1/2HP

Re: Karl's Amanco 3-1/2HP
Nope, they're UNC, But it has odd sizes as the brackets both had oval holes on one side so i had to use 1/2'' and 3/8'' .matt86 wrote:that doesnt seem to look right in my opinion .... are those bolts metric by any chance ?

New flywheel machining
Evening all, Been doing a little bit on the Amanco's new flywheel, i thought i'd share the progress with you, its not 100% finished Yet, mainly due to the need to fettle the keyway.
Cheers,Karl.

Re: Karl's Amanco 3-1/2HP
hi Karl, looks like you are getting on with it well. That machine must be massive as it makes that flywheel look like a small flywheel!

Re: Karl's Amanco 3-1/2HP
he Karl, I know that's it all voluntary and all that but is all the machines owned by someone, part owned by different people or is it donated?
