What was the hardest project ever build that you build??would you do it again???

thanks alot very body... to get a better ideal of what i am trying to build..goggle inertia dyno..look under tdk motorsports. tell information about it and scroll on threw site and will have pictures of what I am doing.. About the diffent flywheeel size...Simple screwed the math up...

Thanks guys ,I did the math again and will be using an 24in wheel by 1 in wheel would bee alot ... I took my meds so my inter hilly billy is under control..will be find a shop who machine a 24 in by 1 in like the plans show...

My inter hillbilly came out today..Was thinking of cutting a router to cut it. My ideal was to first come up with a jig to cut raidus out..then use a router plower the 2 flute end mill bit.. Is this good ideal or dumb on...router will a speed controller to control rpm it....please tell what you...

thanks.

Looking for someone to help me, I need two 10in dia by 4in thick flywheels, can someone, help.. :bow:

is using two 10in flywheels better than one big 20in flywheel??? 10 in dia by 4 in think or 20in by 4in .. need for inertia mass on dyno?????

thanks never thought of that...

Is there any videos for someone just starting out.

the fly wheel i plan on using will be a solid wheel.need machine round and flat, then balanced.with 1.25in hole drill in center for axle..

thanks for warning about the wife, one problem with bolting a bunch of auto, flywheels together is balancing the flywheel.. spinning a flywheel at 3000rpms need a special metal so i doesnt turn into a of horrors... Thats why im asking

it messure the rate that flywheel spins(weight) up .to get horsepower. car flywheels dont have the mass(weight) to get reading you need..

Hi am new to machining as a hobby. I am working on a project,what I am building in a inertia dyno(sorry for my spelling)..The dyno will be ude for small engines(Racing go karts)> My problem is the flywheel for it ,Looking at a 18in. dia with a thickness of 3-4 in.. What is best why to mill...
