I completed the snap in for 40Teeth 12 mm. I still need to work on where the spacers go and reducing further mass. The pulley I made is completely parametric(based on tooth number, pitch, bearing measurements, pulley width) so one can change just those values as per their need.
As you can see in the pic below, this doesn’t really work with standard caliber trucks, so I’ll have to modify that in cad as well
My original plan was to put things in github and do version control from there, but apparently github doesn’t like the solidworks file, because these are binary file and the diffs(difference in texts between the previous file) are huge. I’ll probably share it on google drive and give you guys a download link.
Any one have 3D models of the commonly used wheels that you might want to share or have links to files. @JuniorPotato93?
I am going to modify CAD model of the standard caliber trucks to fit the snap-in pulley, but need to design it with respect to particular wheels. Thanks in advance.
Good to see you are doing this hobby a service mate. Seems like everyone is too interested in starting a business here than sharing designs. Dont get me wrong, people on here are a big help in pointing you towards already available products but i feel theres too much marketing and not enough sharing going on for a DIY site. Providing already manufactured parts to those of us who dont have the equipment to manufacture them ourselves is a great deed but i think that the designs should be shared for those of us they want to have a crack at it seeing as they are marketing in a forum about DIY. Just my 2c
I made the final pulley and made the wheel mating part to perfectly mate the above model. I assembled them with 180mm caliber truck models. Sure they are short, I was wondering if I can use 184mm caliber 2 trucks. Can someone give provide me the dimensions of the caliber 2 trucks. Just the length of the rod and the length of the threaded part.
I completed a mud guard for 90mm wheels. It will need shims to make sure that it doesn’t rub against the bearings. Also will have to increase the clearance distance so that small rocks don’t get trapped in between the wheel and the mud guards.
Do you need to modify the wheel to make it fit?
When you make the pulley exactly as the inside of the 3d model of the wheel that it will be a very tight fit.
I needed a press to make it fit which is perfect for my purpose.
I probably will shrink the profile a bit so that it slips in and out using any tools. I am a bit confused the second pic. Did you remove the central portion of the plastic core?
