2009-12-29 Thread Derek Engelhaupt
Mark,

Abrams are definitely OK.  Motors are a tad heavy, but they sound like they
will do just fine.  I think some of the tanks using the EV Warriors with a
gear reduction end up weighing in around 10-15lbs.  No tank is too big or
really too small (if built to 1/6th scale).  I think some of the Abrams guys
will chime in, but I can try and steer you away from 1/7th scale.  Tom Lum (
http://www.rctankcombat.com/tanks/T059/) originally built his to 1/7th scale
and has since built it to 1/6th scale to gain some height in the turret.
Check out his build for details.  I'd have to measure the length of my KV-2,
but in 1/6th scale I believe it's around 44" long.  BTW, it's usually better
to start a new thread (compose a new Email with new subject line) rather
than get off topic in a current thread.  It just makes it easier to search
the archives.  Good luck with the Abrams.

Derek,

Thanks for taking a run at getting chain!

I a also trying to "get off the ground" building a tank.

Need advice:

1.   Thinking about an M1 Abrams tank, but is it OK to model a non WW2
tank?

2.   M1 Abrams is a BIG tank -- 1/7 th scale makes it 44 inches long
(plus the gun barrel). Tub width = 13 inches wide @ 1/7 scale. Is
1/7th scale and 44 inches long gonna be OK? (I know the rules allow
variations from 1/6 scale, but is 44 inches too big?)

3.   I have some nice motors: 24 volt, 1100 RPM, 4" diameter, 7.5 inch
long(+ 1.25 inches for the shaft), full ball bearings, but they weigh
11.5 pounds each. Should only need 2 to 1 sprocket ratio. The motors
could be spaced fore and aft, rather than side by side as I see in
most designs.

4. I will go to the scrap yard tomorrow and purchase some 1/4 inch
aluminum plate for the "Tub" sidewalls and 3/16 plate for the tub
bottom.

5. On a previous trip to the scrapyard, I found an aluminum "T" shaped
extrusion that is 2.5 inches wide and .09 inch thick (purchased 16
feet of it). I think I can cut it into segments and use it for the
center guide on a TTS track. I have a sheet of 1/4 inch, gray, PVC
that I can cut into 3.5 inch wide by .75 long treads.
I can liminate the PVC treads with the treadmill track and aluminum
"T" segments to make track.

Have a Lathe and Milling machine in the basement, so working with
aluminum is no problem.

Could use all the advice I can get!

Thanks!
Mark

Well, they responded and I doubt I will do this since their minimum order to
ship the the US is $3000.

Dear Derek,

Thank you very much for your email and we are glad to learn your interesting
in our products of double pitch attachment chain.

However, there is a min order q'ty as 200~300ft per size and US$3000 per

other chain items you need, we would like to make an offer at the same

you are interesting in.

Taking this chance, we would like to learn more about your company. Please

Look forward to hear from you soon.

Derek,

Ben's cost is much lower because he is in Australia.

Shipping from China to the US will be very expensive.
I purchased M01 motors for $30 each but shipping was
also $30 each.

I have a federal EIN for Anvilus Machine Works and
can order if the supplier will only sell to a corporate
account.

Joe

Tsubaki chain is expensive as heck.  And no, not the right chain.  It would
have to have the
K-1 attachment on EVERY link.  That's why I was going to look into Ben's
supplier and see
if anyone else wanted to go in on a group buy.  I could front the cash for
the buy and distribute
it once I got it.  I've bought and sold stuff to Doug Conn and Joe Sommer so
I think they could
vouch for me.  ;)  I just Emailed Ben's supplier for a quote on the 2060
chain.  I'll let everyone
know what they come back with.

I just called tsubaki (http://www.ustsubaki.com/).
They make chain.
The sales person set me up with a part number C2060h k1 2l rb.
It is 2060, double pitch, with an attachment every other link.
Is that the right stuff?
His list price was $47 per foot !!

WHAT???
