      Evwan- the producer of that video, who is now I've heard deceased, was knowledgeable but known for being highly opinionated. My...

      This topic is more interesting than I'd initially assessed. Accurately securing two bearings on a shaft in fixed housings/end caps in an...

      Good observations by reneclaus11 in post #100. These inexpensive motors are under appreciated for basic single stage chain drive...

      If these get to the $6 range for a hundred cells by next year I'll probably sell the 100 lightly used Samsung 50s I recently bought and...

      Ok, watched the video, so it's already been done. I've done a lot of TIG, and am surprised that significant grease and oil didn't get...

      I'd need to see the actual assembly in question, but this sounds like an idea I'd avoid. Welded parts must be scrupulously clean, you...

      Finished. I now have #30 bearing units on 2 of my bikes, and no plans to build any more. Or more bikes at this point, as 5 is enough I...

      Voot- great that you have CNC. You'll keep us posted if you start building then. mx- thanks, that's about what I figured. It seemed...

      I used recycled cells for my first pack build, and the results were fine, but I'll never hassle with that again. Way too much labor, and...

      Thanks :). The white bike is light, compact, precise bmx handling, but no suspension. Max 42mph. The green OCC Stingray is...
