Is this much slack normal measuring this way? This is what Identifix says: MEASURING TIMING CHAIN WEAR 1. Position a scale next to timing chain so that any movement of chain may be measured. 2. Position a torque wrench and socket on the camshaft sprocket attaching bolt. Apply force in the direction of crankshaft rotation to take up slack to the following torque: 41 N·m (30 ft. lb.) with cylinder heads installed 20 N·m (15 ft. lb.) with cylinder heads removed NOTE: With torque applied to the camshaft sprocket bolt, crankshaft should not be permitted to move. It may be necessary to block crankshaft to prevent rotation. 3. Holding a measuring scale along edge of chain links. 4. Apply force in the reverse direction to the following torque: 41 N·m (30 ft. lb.) with cylinder heads installed 20 N·m (15 ft. lb.) with cylinder heads removed 5. Measure amount of sprocket/chain movement. 6. Install a new timing chain and sprockets if movement exceeds 3.175 mm (1/8 in.).
Awesome video, I'm in the process of installing both components (same as yours) in my work bench that I just built. Do you only have one tool hooked up at one time or do you have multiple lines running for each tool connected to the dust collector?
From my experience I found this to be normal. I changed my timing chain around 80k on the Dash and the slack/noise return after 35k. I used Mopar chain and sprockets. I will change the chain with mellin 30 hopefully it will hold longer.
Hi, thanks for the video. You dont need to adjust the fence height every time. Just set the initial plunge at the lowest point and then add a 3mm packer between the timber surface and the fence for your second plunge 👍
I like this a lot. I may build one. Few questions. Was this purchased? If so, how much and do you have a link? How tall is this off the ground? Being that this folds up from the center instead of down, does the pressure from a drumset and drummer in the center cause the sides to bend upwards? Would it be better to build one that folds down from the center so the center pressure could not possibly bend the sides up? ..hmmmmmmm
This was built using 2x4 and 2x6 lumber, OSB, hardboard, casters, and a floor lock. I added carpet after this video was shot. There have been no issues with flexing because the casters are positioned in the extreme corners of each platform. The latches on the sides also add to the rigidity.
@@Brews_Bikes Ohh ok so you painted the OSB black or? How do you like the carpet? What's the best material to use on the top for super non slip while I'm using my meinl drum rug? lol Good point about the latches too. You have any leftover blueprints? xD I can figure out the math and everything if not lol
Justin Wunderlich I just built it on the fly so, no plans. I mounted hardboard on top of the OSB, so that’s probably why it looks like I painted it. It added a little more thickness, stiffness, and absorption to the top. The carpet serves well for bass drum spurs to grip. It was pretty inexpensive indoor/outdoor gray carpet from Home Depot
@@Brews_Bikes I gocha, no worries. So, side wall frame, then OSB, then drill through top for the wheels, using an extra piece of wood i see, then hardboard is the order? You had to cut both the OSB and hardboard right? I'm just not sure if they make those exact shapes in these kinda sizes..but I could be wrong and maybe find something haha Thanks for the help man. I really appreciate it :)
@@Brews_Bikes I'll just try to match where you put the casters and how you did the cross beams underneath. Mine will probably just be a perfect rectangle
Thanks I have one of these but not set up yet. I might add a baffle made from plywood for when the bin gets a bit more full...but actually seeing this in action was really helpful!
Hi there. Which is the best invisible joiner (permanent or releasable) available on your opinion? I had the opportunity to see Ovvo connectors on work and im not to happy with it. Still searching :)
This is exactly what i'd like to build. Thank you for the video. One question, even with the locking wheels, is there any sort of "rocking" when the drums are being played. My drummers have a zero tolerance for platforms that move when they play. Thanks!
Logan Lindahl The platform is supported by eight high-quality swivel casters. There has been no perceivable sway or movement. It isn’t shown in the video, but I carpeted the entire platform prior to moving it on-stage. The drummers at my church are quite happy with the setup.
Nice! I had a tough time choosing between the G0690 and the G0833P. I went with the cheaper G0833P. So far so good. Looks like the G0690 is a bit beefier.
Peter Lewis piano hinges don’t provide enough overlay onto the surfaces and place fasteners very close to the edge of the material they are attached to. This is a heavy duty application and I didn’t want to risk screws pulling out or splitting the edge. Also, these gate hinges were readily available to me.
Merendo Bereglidditz The platform was fully carpeted after this video was shot. There was some concern that the bass drum may contact the middle hinge but it didn’t turn out to be an issue.
Sorry, Rod Davila. I didn’t create any plans. Materials are 2x6, OSB, polyurethane casters, a floor lock, gate hinges, and a sheet of hardboard on top.
