Still Alive

Know the project is still alive.  It has just been delayed by this insanely busy time called summer.  Know I am actively working on finding a free night to finish it up!!

Sprockets

Yet another shopping trip at mcmaster.com/ yielded the (hopefully) last components for my project.


Not quite sure what to call this piece of metal.  But know it's important.


Two bushings to fit over the freewheel hub on my bike wheels.


They fit!!!


It's looking good!

Kebabs and Plasma Cutters

Today - well, yesterday now - I worked on my project again.  I was hoping to finish everything today and roll home under my own power, but alas, it was not to be.  We spent nearly a solid 3 hours just working on the wheel assembly - one of them.  Finally, as 9 o'clock rolled around, we called it quits and will have to finish making it work next time.  The good thing is that we're nearly done with that part, and it'll just be a matter of copying it for the other wheel.

Teriyaki Chicken Kebabs.  They'are just as awesome as a Mystery Project!

Plasma cutter!!!  And a sprocket.

The drive assembly, almost in it's proper place.

The drive assembly, plus the motor, batteries, and controller assembly

Yep, this is what we made tonight.  Isn't it beautiful?

Final edition of the frame (hopefully).  Now it doesn't bow in half when I sit down on it!!!

The pile of stuff grows larger, and yet condenses...
