Hex bar
- Ideal is to use Stainless steel 303 bar for axle to better stand up to Haitian environment.
- Specs call for 27mm bar. This can easily be swapped for 1 1/16" hex bar (26.9875mm). 1 1/16" 303SS bar is hard to source. 1" or 1 1/8" is much more common, but would require an adjustment of the laser cut files.
- Simon has adjusted the files for a 1" bar, and is sourcing that in stainless.
Motor Considerations
- 70RPM, 80-100 NM Torque.
- Interchangeable with extruder motor, ideally.
- Salvaged would be ideal. Old washing machine motor or drill press motor?
