Shows an assembled U-joint and a larger opening in the chassis to accommodate the U-joint. |
A .039" diameter music wire drive shaft attached to the U-joint. |
Finished U-joints. Ends toward the trucks have square sliding tubing. |
The construction had stopped at this point. I needed to figure out how to build a set of trucks. Turn the clock forward three years.
Nothing has been done. I do have a set of trucks but do not like the tower gearing. I'm thinking a "tank drive". The project will be
shelfed until the layout is built. So for now this project sits with others on the back burner until I get a layout built.
