 The fiberglass wasn't really staying in these little grooves, so I clipped it in place. Doesn't really matter if the paper stays there. Alright, now this mess should turn into a beautiful part after I trim it. I think I got everything lined up. Now do not touch it till it cures. These little gray pieces of pipe here fit snugly over my side bearings. And then obviously the middle bearings go in this. And then I just used a straight piece of pipe to make sure it's all lined up straight across. Oh yeah, I stuck a tube in here to make sure this is lined up straight with that. Right now it just has enough resin and fiberglass around all the seams to hold them in place. They're just tacked in. So once that's all hard, I can take out this middle section and then fiberglass those in for real and that. Got those all fiberglassed in nice and solid. Now how do I keep these bearings together? Well, this will keep the bearings from going in too far. Now if I put something on this end, you'll pinch them. I melted these to fit. I think that's it with the unacceptable error. It's all gonna wiggle some. Let's have to make sure this can wiggle a little too. Two screws on each side and they go right into the one end of the bearing. So it holds the whole thing together. Plus the plastic thing, so double protection. A little bit wobbly off to fine tune these a bit. The whole thing wobbles a little though. I just have to make it all flexible. Alright, next this guy. First I need to cut this out of the chair so I can move it over about a centimeter. I tried to make this offset but I guess when I was fiberglassing it in, it ended up right down the middle. It's not a big deal though. There's not much fiberglass holding it yet. Whoa, it looks like a storm is coming. I've been here in thunder for a while. I guess I better not cut anything open right now. Because that chamber down there is dry and it's currently sealed. So if I cut that open and water gets in it, it's no good. Oh, and while I'm here. Yeah, good clearance. Yeah, even if I push it against it, it can't hit. See the other side. Yeah, hold on. Oh duh, there is something I didn't check yet. That's kind of important. That's pretty good. No resistance at all. Okay, nice. I have clips so I can pull and push. Crank those propellers. I guess while it's raining outside, I can figure out how to attach this gear to one of these pieces of tubing. That's the propeller axle. Whoa. Obviously I can just drill a big enough hole to fit it on there but it needs to actually grip on, not slip. It needs to turn this with force to turn the propeller. The other situation is the three longest pieces of the stuff I have make one piece big enough for my shaft out there. So that means I can weld three pieces together. Which I don't really want to do. If I only had to weld two together, that wouldn't be such a big deal. I feel like I'm pushing my luck with three though because it might break at some point. Another option is I can go to town. I saw a 20 foot length of this stuff for, I think, $25 or $30. So maybe I'll just spring for that. If I cut splines in this, I can't cut them very deep because the tube just isn't that thick. I think I can make a run for lunchtime.
