Bill this clutch will probably end up being 1.7" diameter. that is roughly twice the size he wants to end up with. I can't imagine machining something that small myself. However, he is doing some amazing small stuff.----Brian
That's a pretty neat bit of work, Brian. I'm looking forward to you building that into one of your engine/load set-ups. One small concern, that probably won't mean much for the limited service intended, is the lack of compliance or elasticity in the mechanism. A tiny amount of wear in the clutch surfaces or the actuator cone and arms will result in no engagement. Maybe the arms could be lengthened and made thin to act a springs......Pete
A wonderful illustration of iterative design.
