    Have to add my kudos for the spline grinding. I've spent many hours using a mill and indexing head to make them. That was really slick the way you did it.

    I am 74 years old and have been around some very talented mechanics and fabricators while working as a certified aircraft mechanic. I knew two personally, I worked for both of them building one of a kind prop driven aircraft. Their talents were beyond amazing. They seemed to have the various projects mentally completed before they picked up a wrench. Their efforts were always spot on no matter what the project. I put you in the same class as those talented men. Three cheers sir.

    While grinding the splines was an artful demonstration, you had a lathe. You could have cut the splines off, turned down a stub end, bored a hole and welded the factory splines into the existing axle. No beating them. Very well done and interesting video.

    That would be a good way to up-speed a waterwheel too. Instead of hand cutting splines, I would have just turned the shaft down to about half the diameter of the splines. Then saw the splined end off the axle, drill down the center to match the shaft, slip it on and weld it in place. I've done that in emergency repairs a couple of times.

    Just curious, but why cut new splines? Seems like you could cut the excess shaft out of the middle and welded the stub with the splines back on. For those that might worry about alignment, clamps and angle iron would take care of that. And, in Donn DIY's case, he's got a lathe to help with the alignment. Bore hole for alignment pin? I don't think it would be any more "out of tolerance" than making your own splines with a marker and hand grinder. Not intended as a criticism. Just thinking out loud. Maybe I'm missing something...

    Leave the wheels on it and the whole axle intact. Turn the
    Pinion shaft down, attach a mower blade to the Pinion flange then add a trailer hitch and tongue to it. Pull it behind a ATV, Side X Side, tractor or truck. When the tires turn the blade will spin.
    You just have to adjust the height by tire size.

  • @thomassellers7613
    @thomassellers7613 7 лет назад +1

    Instead of welding spider gears, why not cut off the un-used axle , weld it solid to a "plate" (which would be like locking one wheel) and that would multiply the output speed of the axle being used? Otherwise as you have it, the out put is still much slower rpm than the input (determined by the ratio of the original gears). Something to think about.... Woody in Georgia
