Re: Battle ready Heavyweight - Hammer Time FORSALE

Thanks! That machine looks cool... it would be nice to see a shot of the axe mechanism though. You didn't answer my question about the axe motor... is it the big Perm PMG132 or the smaller 080?

Re: Battle ready Heavyweight - Hammer Time FORSALE

I would say its probably the smaller one, but i may be wrong !

Next time im at my storage unti, ill take a few photos.

But the axe mechansim is basically...

Perm to gearbox via chain..
3 stage gear reduction in a custom built gearbox
Into a big adjustable clutch
Up to the top axe drive sproket
The hammer is the welded to the drive sproket

Hope this helps

Nick, I don't know if the layout of the gearbox has changed since it went from Thor to Hammertime, but here is a close-up picture I took of it from Thor days. The only problem is that the hammer arm blocks a bit of it

Re: Battle ready Heavyweight - Hammer Time FORSALE

can i just say the mech alone cost over £600 to build. Its a perm 080 and is plenty powerful enough. It works on a clutch so the motor wont burn out under stall. It worked well in Thor and is built very well. John Reid did infact help with the design but it is Jasons brainchild.
