GDay All,
I just finished designing a 3cc 4-Stroke single made from barstock, all except for the actual cam profile. My knowledge of cams is pretty sketchy so I'm looking for resources on the subject.
I've googled and found nothing that would assist me in designing a cam or for plotting the profile.
Does any one here have a good resource for design of cams, prefferably in laymans terms? ( Trigonometry baffles me ... :big: )
Or any ideas on plotting a decent cam profile?
Thanks to SteveHucks I have a fairly good method of machining the cam, now all I need is a profile to machine :big:
