Construction of Electric Chopper

[ilia-45]

I want it....

If you have a bit of necessary equipment you will have such one

[ElliottE]

Beautiful work, I'm looking forward to seeing how this looks when it's done!

Yeah, the guilty pleasure of looking at your pictures and thinking 'I could do that.' And I sort of could, I've used mills and lathes. But how big is your equipment? Is this in your garage?

If I break down and get some Sherlines, will these little guys be able to handle it? Kind of scary to think of getting something so big I can't move it and having it dropped here at the house.

my jaw is on the floor. that fork looks like it could be on a 500lb chopper, I love it!

[Scruffoid]

As all are saying Man that looks so good. Great work. Hope you got a good video camera so we can get some nice video footage of it matey. A nice walk around and riding action would be tops!

Keep it up mate! You must really love you ebiking

A bit off topic, but I wanted to answer the Sherline question.......

I would go with Taig over Sherline because of two things, cost and size. Taig machines will handle larger parts with greater rigidity and are less costly. They do not look as pretty, but they are very capable. All of my prototype work is done on Taig equipment. I have manufactured thousands and thousands of RC helicopter parts with my Taig equipment.

But how big is your equipment? Is this in your garage?

The equipment I have big enough lathe weighs 180 kg, a milling machine weighs 165 kg and the second 380kg.
Sherlines can not handle with the task of this scale
The matter with low stiffness machine of this size.

It seems to me that this problem is for the larger machinery otherwise, each item will take weeks of work

I'm very flattered to hear such an opinion but really nothing unusual about what I do
As for English, I use a translator to somehow fix my errors

Yes it is a motorcycle speedometer

Now that's what I call a master craftsman. I learned how to use these machines in trade school, wish I had stuck with it.
