Yep, looks nice....but seems like too much work for something that didnt really need improvement.

What was your reason for this?

Did you make the plate from scrap aluminum, or is it already a motor plate for something else?

Either way, nice work.

I have always used washers when mounting the motor. I guess that is why I have not experienced the sinking problem...

I did it trying to get rid of some unnessesary plastic on the pede tranny. I still need to trim some more of the excess fat off the aluminum plate but it's a start. Once I have it the way I like I probably will put it into production. I also made just a plate to keep the screws from sinking into the plastic. This will probably also go into production.

I am also supposed to be getting the quotes back on my axle c's tomorrow. I have prints for 5, 10, 15, and 20 degree ones. Pictured are the 20 degree ones.

Nice work!


But probably need to keep any/all discussion about going into production on the down-low until you get a vendor's star.
