Building your own Dyno

[Sandblaster]

Sometimes engineers really do know what they are doing
Good thing you found a good one.
I bet your aching to get the dyno going...

Yes, a great toy/tool, if it works ok then it should provide " hours of fun ".

I will get pictures soon, I'm going home in three weeks time.

There are lots more. There will be cheap ways of doing it. Having something heavy and on bearings is a good start.

Those are some good links, thanks for posting..
3 more weeks?
Oh well... you gotta put some green in the boat first

[Crofter985]

Well, you gotta work so you can play.

Picked up the roller.

[Crofter985]

The guy made both stubshafts the same so the disc and starter ring can go at either end an can go disc first or starter ring first. This is great, it frees up the design of the chassis.


There's the roller, now the chassis is going to be made out of these two H beams. I'm going HEAVY, obviously. Beams going away for blasting.

That's all for now.

That's gonna be real nice.
I am impressed.
I can't wait to see what your turbo machine does
Turns out there is a local guy with a dyno and I gave him a sweet deal on some parts
Soooo... I will be going to get a baseline reading before long

[Crofter985]

got beams blasted today.

Cut one in half and primed.

More tomorrow.

I can't wait... I see other toys too
