Yes, i think i`ll have to look into that again...

Got my saw blade back today. They put on all new teeth:

Runs like crazy:

Finished on it`s place:

Then i continued working on the rear driveshaft:

All parts together:

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

Finished the rear driveshaft today:

No, the angles won`t be that much later...

Also started building a new tool that`s needed to finish all the shaft:

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

Just a quick update:

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

Did some more work to the positioner:

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

Let`s go on:

Now i just need to build a cover and a pedal and wait for the chuck...

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

First i made a cover for the positioner:

Then i mounted the tracks again:

Wow:Wow1nce again a HUGE amount of progress. I really think the Hågglund looks cool in your shop with the tracks on. I can really see the project start to take shape... Cheers, Chilli.

WOW!!!!!!!

Well. I was just looking for some info regarding L300, then saw your thread about it.....and then noticed this Hagglunds thread... (actually, building a similar vehicle, like Gama-Goat, would have been much easier, but I support your idea )

....and then I spent half a Sunday going through this thread! You really are an inspiration for all of us DIY garage engineers and really show us that we should spend more time with tools than keyboard

By the way, I love your tools! Tell me, how high is your electricity bill?)) Do your neighbors complain about power surges or spikes, due to huge amount of welding you do? You really should need your own power station!))

Keep up the good work and get a lot of great tools for not a lot of money!

Thanks man, really like to hear that...

Didn`t like the way i built it, so i started over:

The main shaft where the chunk will be mounted:

Gear mount:

Didn`t like the plastic gear so i went back to the belt drive:

Everything together:

It`s still to fast so i`ll add another reduction tomorrow:

Will be a nice and strong unit with the 10" chunk...

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

Started with the reduction pulley today:

Then i mocked everything up:

And welded it:

Pivot:

Everything together:

 

[chilliwak]

Really:Wow1:impressive fabrication Steinez! What will this unit be used for? Cheers, Chilli....:ylsmoke:

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

This is used to rotate the workpiece, so round things can be welded in one pass.

Picked up the chunk today:

Made a key for it:

And a mount:

Welded up:

At it`s place:

Ground:

First testrun:

Finished:

First try, this thing is awesome...

Your thread title needs to change Stein! I'm thinking "How I make every tool under the sun from scratch". Snow is coming, time to get the Häglund rolling
