it looks like this design can not use on caliber 44…, either make it adjustable, or make another version for 44.
an adjustable version would be the ultimate solution, since you can use them for reverse mount or inward mount.

Or just use a riser
i want my board to be as close to the ground as possible. My first build was rather high and that is quite annoying. But sure, if it is too much to ask for he can just leave it at that.

I did! I poke larger hole on cover hole and bolted through bearings and locked with nuts.
cool. can you share a picture?
You could add teeth to the 2 pieces so it has many possible angles and won’t rely on just pressure.
looks well used^^

That’s good idea, Thanks.
I have some idea of the adjustable version now, but still don’t have one that satisfy me. in the end very possibly I will produce the fixed angle one. 1 version for caliper 50, 1 for caliper 44. this will be more cheap, better suit for net shop sale.

is that jp weld on the trucks and mount?
that is a cool idea. yeah two parts makes it more time consuming. well let us know when you have the fixed angle versions.
OK, could help to confirm if the dimension of the caliper truck on below picture is correct ?
i have no precision measurement tools here but those numbers look good to me.
OK, Thanks!
It looks like the plate is thicker that the clamp where they mate, could be liable to break there, I would leave it thicker even if the motor plate sticks out a bit
Trying to think how you can acoud having to make a left and right side version but maybe no option, I know this increases cost
yes, I know the clamp shall be the thicker part. but in that case the blue part need to do 2 side milling…

Would be concerned about a stress crack developing here if not thick enough, a lot of load would be transmitted to this point. Silver clamp looks thinner than blue plate
My opinion is: make it simple. Means don’t bother with nice curvy & intricate shape. The less material you mill, cheaper it is. Make it non adjustable, less tinkering and much more reliable; less moving parts, less influence of vibration. Simpler it is, stronger it gets and easier to properly align with pulleys. Simpler can be stealthier. Browse effective designs and make something similar. Probably make 2 versions 63xx and 50xx. With and without idlers. Just my 2 cents
