Coffee Shop / The making of Billet Flywheels.
« on: February 13, 2013, 03:02:21 pm »
There has been discussion from time to time on making your own Billet Flywheel,
versus buying one. Things have got from just talking about it, to telling folks how
to go about doing it. While that seems an easy thing to do, a personal friend,
who is also a Master Machinist, attempted to build one with software to test the
piece after it was designed. It failed many times. While copying a Flywheel may
be an easy task for some, it is not for everyone. Heymow has had a stance on
SAFETY minded builds for a long time. Competition is the way of the world, and
not why this thread was written. So if a person decides to make their own Billet
Flywheel, they will not be teaching people how to do it on Heymow. Due to the
nature of this subject, a warning will issued one time, then subsequent measures
will be taken to insure this topic is not discussed through Heymow.
Thank you for your understanding in this delicate matter.
