I'm one session away from completing the steel tubing red-lines for Thunderbolt MK III. These red-line marked up drawings affect primarily the rear section. Plans will be ready for emailing Saturday. For new purchases, these red-lined drawings will be included in a seperate directory and designated as version 1.1. Please note - These red-lines are based on calculations and observations only. In other-words I have not completed one of these steel versions yet and... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Rick Horwitz) http://hellbentcycleworks.yuku.com/sreply/94 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 05:52:44 GMT http://hellbentcycleworks.yuku.com/reply/84/t/Steel-T-bolt-plans.html#reply-84
Completed redlines for the 26 inch rear section and redlined the topview of overview for each 20" and 26". Only thing left is the steering bulkheads. So, anyone wanting these completed redlines they will be completed this Sunday (6/21)

I plan to have the 26 inch rear section completed tomorrow evening.

First, let me explain the properties of carbon steel and how it compares to aluminum or Cro-Mo. Almost all steel has a percentage of carbon; the more carbon the harder the steel. However, too much carbon and the steel becomes brittle. As I previously mentioned, I used muffler pipe last year and found it extremely soft. Well it turns out that 1010 steel is slightly... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Rick Horwitz) http://hellbentcycleworks.yuku.com/sreply/80 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 23:10:03 GMT http://hellbentcycleworks.yuku.com/topic/904/t/Steel-T-bolt-plans.html
I've had many request for plans conversions building the T-bolt out of steel. I tried using regular muffler tubing last year and found it to be too soft and thick walled (dang heavy). Perhaps the the steel was 1007 instead of 1010? So, I am in process of getting some specs in from The Tube Service in Milpitas. I can easily spec out using 2" muffler tubing for this project, but I'm confident that a smaller diameter tubing with thinner wall thickness will... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Rick Horwitz) http://hellbentcycleworks.yuku.com/topic/904 Tue, 26 May 2009 20:38:15 GMT
