Oh, that makes way more sense

2018-05-28 05:24:44 UTC  

...i dont have a socket set

2018-05-28 05:25:05 UTC  

Just don't do what I just did and demo with a Gatorgrip and chew up the shaft by accidentally hitting the launch button

2018-05-28 05:25:28 UTC  

Thank you for your sacrifice

2018-05-28 05:26:12 UTC  

Yours doesn't look socket-able

2018-05-28 05:26:29 UTC  

But if it's under half an inch you can just chuck it up

2018-05-28 05:27:10 UTC  

If it's over, I dunno, dowel in chuck, short length of tubing to go over dowel and shaft, pipe clamps over both?

2018-05-28 05:27:26 UTC  

That might be both the jankiest and cheapest solution

2018-05-28 05:27:52 UTC  

Just make a dowel, you have a drill press and an internet connection to watch Matthias Wandel

2018-05-28 05:28:25 UTC  

Hey I'm retarded

2018-05-28 05:28:36 UTC  

And any onlookers are too if they haven't come up with this yet

2018-05-28 05:28:50 UTC  

Sec

Only mildly annoyed I didn't rename that to sounddocking.jpg

2018-05-28 05:31:34 UTC  

@Mirurin (真的華人時刻) only minor cosmetic damage thankfully

2018-05-28 05:33:42 UTC  

I mean it drills holes more or less true but I cant figure out what the hell is with the rattle

2018-05-28 05:33:52 UTC  

Inb4 John accidentally photographs his face in something reflective

2018-05-28 05:34:06 UTC  

Right. So test the two things independently

2018-05-28 05:34:07 UTC  

It might be because I dont have it bolted down amd its on my floor

2018-05-28 05:34:13 UTC  

Eh

2018-05-28 05:34:15 UTC  

Maybe

2018-05-28 05:34:28 UTC  

Turn it on and wiggle it around and hold parts to see if it stops

2018-05-28 05:35:05 UTC  

But yeah. Latest pic. Do that. Test spindle bearings.

2018-05-28 05:35:10 UTC  

Shaft has some play but the gears themselves are solid

2018-05-28 05:36:39 UTC  

With belts removed obviously

2018-05-28 05:37:07 UTC  

Oh wait, I'm retarded, just noticed there is a chunk of belt that is fucking toast.

2018-05-28 05:37:24 UTC  

This is going to need replacing

2018-05-28 05:37:47 UTC  

I could have sworn it looked mostly fine before too

2018-05-28 05:37:48 UTC  

Oh, problem solved

2018-05-28 05:38:23 UTC  

How are those red adjustable sized belts? They advertise that they're quieter, but I can't even remotely imagine that being the case.

2018-05-28 05:39:24 UTC  

Didn't mattias Wendel do a vid on them?

2018-05-28 05:39:26 UTC  

People report mixed things about them

2018-05-28 05:39:41 UTC  

Think he said they were noisy vibrating pieces of shit

2018-05-28 05:41:13 UTC  

We has some controversial opinions, but if he says they're shit, and they're getting mixed reviews at best, I assume they're shit

2018-05-28 05:41:22 UTC  
2018-05-28 05:41:43 UTC  

I dunno how long these pullys have because I count two big ass chips off them so I'll play itn safe with a normal belt. Replacement parts are literally '3D print, cast and turn them yourself because you sure as shit arent going to find anything' teir

2018-05-28 05:42:25 UTC  

It's a belt, you can find the right size.

2018-05-28 05:42:40 UTC  

Not the velt, the gears
