I've been an engineer for 36 years fabricating welding and machining and you are well wise beyond your years, can't wait for the selector set up a pleasure to watch keep it up sir.
I know I'm late and you probably won't see this, but, this was the most satisfying video I've ever seen on TH-cam. If you're stressed, watch this video and all that stress will melt away. Fantastic work on the parts and the editing!
I'm a Transmission Rebuilder for 40 Ys and I'm 55ys old ,my dad started us 4 Boy's and now we are EDWARDS BROTHER'S TRANSMISSION ROANOKE RAPIDS NORTH CAROLINA , AND I HAVE TO SAY THAT WAS SOMETHING SPECIAL, WOW YOU JUST STOLE MY CHILD HULD DREAM AND ACTUALLY DID IT ,ALL THOES ENGINEERS IN YOUR BRAIN WORK TOGETHER JUST LIKE GEARS IN A BOX ⚙️🔧⚡ THANKS FOR THAT
This was one of my FAVORITE videos! You should really see this thing through! I have gone back and rewatched it three or four times because I am planning to make a simple little gearbox that is hopefully super duper overbuilt for my projects!!
i've been watching you for a while now and it's cool to see how you're growing, both in complexity of your projects and in machining and welding practices.... Keep up on doing what you're doing, bro. Hugs from Brazil.
That looks like most diff lockers, sick setup! The most durable home made transmission in a go kart. Damn!! This looks like what they did when they used Offenhauser engines at the track and needed custom transmissions.
oh, man! You have on idea. I have been drawing and tinkering and thinking for weeks! Ive searched 100s of think about gearboxes, transmissions, and go carts. This is my exact idea and i couldent find anyone who hade dome the same. THANKYOU SIR!!!!
Looks like our skilled producer & engineer may have bottled this series for unknown reasons . It's still 3 speed & reverse box finished The addition of grooves on the outsides of the dogs for selectors and some spring loaded detents will have it shiftable . Completeing the case will allow oil bath lubrication. But seeing it done was the exercise really. There are so many used car gearboxes about something the right size w. 5spd & reverse must be easy to retrofit ? Great job "..B welding" . I enjoyed the story. And 10,000 others too. 0.8% of viewers ticked a different tune which is outstanding approval.
might wanna ream out the non-keyed sprockets, and put some bronze bushings with spiral oil grooves in them. since the gokart shafts are hardened steel, I'm not sure annealed steel will last super long, even with an oil bath. otherwise, your transmission is looking pretty good! can't wait to see you try and figure out the shift linkage... 😺
The bronze bushing will wear out the harden steel shaft before it sacrifices itself. So actually the softened steel on the hardened steel is a better combo.
@@johnwalker7592 Bronze bushings are softer than hardened steel, so how will that work. The only time I ever see shaft or sprocket/gear wear on their bore is when the bush is gone, because no one lubed it or checked it, and it's steel on steel. The only time I have ever seen a bush wear out a shaft was when I was dealing with a really hard bronze like aluminium bronze. Normal composition bronze wont wear hardened steel in my experience. They are sacrificial, made to be that way. You might have a different experience, tell me if you do please. Always keen to learn
I'm impressed. I see a possible issue with being able to get it into 3rd and reverse at the same time. If you haven't already came up with a shifter concept may I suggest one? Groove the shifter dogs then harden them. Get a small deep groove ball bearing, 608 should work and they are dirt cheap, have it run in the groove rather than a shifter fork, otherwise you are getting into a fully sealed case with oiling. For the shifter itself it is hard to explain but I think an "H" pattern. Have the shifter pivot with 1 side engaging 2/3 and the other R/1, run 2 pairs of cables (2 per dog, pull each direction) so you aren't shifting sideways. Hope you get it going, if I had the equipment I would build one myself.
Screw run out ! You need some vibration or the chains won't stretch and You'll never know when to pull a link or get a new chain ! What a fun time in the shop. Sweet.
Great job but a lot of work to design something easily obtained. Just pull one from a small truck or even a lawnmower, The engineering is behind it and you can use a clutch instead of clunky dogs that aren't designed to do what you are doing with them. Using a clutch is much smoother and makes the transition from one speed to another easier. Finding an aluminum trans for a front wheel drive car with a transaxle with the clutch pedal box and bell housing shouldn't take more than a couple of hours to pull if they don't have one already pulled and costs much less than you have just in the plate alone . . The reason I say anything is I have chased down this rainbow on a project and found many times using something off the shelf already designed parts, ready for stresses and loads works much better than anything designed in the garage. Thanks for great content it's been a pleasure to watch your channel grow. Plus if the part fails an easily found replacement can be purchased quickly. Many times we forget the end goal of getting things going and projects get derailed as we get caught up in the details and wanting to make everything perfect when good enough will do. This is why some restorations can go on for years and never get completed. Reinventing the wheel is fine but just know its been done and by someone probably smarter than you and I.
The non-key'd gears have to have bronze bushings or something in them at least, I dont think they'll last long without it, and also transmission shafts are SUPER smoothe, like ground on a surface grinder and are hardened, Go-Kart axles will last 5 minutes-
not saying ur wrong. but he did make a 2 speed one without being in a box of oil or having any fancy seals. and that thing is still running strong after 1-2 years

Man I've seen this video a year ago and I have a project that is extremely similar, I haven't seen anyone do it on their own like that ... That's engineering at it's finest ... You know how to repair it if something breaks ... And it's probably dirt cheap, I would love to see this project finished ... And mor things like this like a homemade clutch ...

Thank you for some awesome comment and I really hope you'll follow up this video
Awesome job !!!. But can I offer a bit of advice try putting a slit bevel on the shifter cogs contact teeth so they will mesh in out better when changing gears. Might also want reharden those gears and install bushings were moving on shaft . Not being negative just want to help
Your basic understanding of engineering and machining skills are good. They will improve over the years. Never stop learning and reaching for the very best, of the best.
@@mikeisaac3826 He is referring to the first "your" (in "Your such a badass!"), where "you're" would be the correct one. The second use is correct though, as you very well spotted.

I have been doing this kind of stuff for over 30 years and you impressed me that's a great job. Some input for you use linear rail bearings for the parts that need to slide on the shaft and taper the ends so it can shift on the fly and harden the teeth I would like to see it with shift forks to see how well it works when your done with it
Such a brilliant video, wasn't a subscriber but knew of you through Penny Pincher and Greg. The editing, the camera angles, everything was brilliant. You didn't need anymore talking in the video as it spoke for itself. I could have watch it for hours!!
I'm 53 and started out like you... wanting to design and make my own parts for projects. I wasn't into "Sports", and I'm still NOT. I don't waste my time with that bullshit. I like working with my hands and being outside. I love it when folks say that it can't be fixed, or it can't be done. Makes me laugh. Triple thumbs up!!!
Best video you've ever done. The soothing music made this something I could chill out and watch all day. I could see this going viral if you could show the finished product in the same video.
The larger sintered metal gear will likely need bushing made for it where the bolts go through the larger holes. The gear will slip back and forth with it only being pinched between the 2 plates that are bolted together.
Looking good, but this is the easy part, now comes the linkage and shift yokes. I was wondering, would lovejoys have worked for engaging different gears instead of machining them? Keep up the great work.
LOL @ Mailbox forge. That's fantastic. All I can say is Damn Chris. You are one seriously talented young man with quite a bright future. The world is yours, my friend!
This project displays a high level of talent in concept, design, detail and manufacture for such a young man. Is this all you or do you have a mentor working with you? Great job. BTW - 20+ years in tool design and construction with GM. Retired as head of Global Body Shop Tool Design and Construction Standards.
Wedges between those dog box gears and a spring to pull them toghter on the side that wont get in the way of( like the back side) so it's always under tension unless a wedge pushes on it
unreal talent, thank you for your time being a gear head from birth i love everything to do with loud gas burning flame throwing goodness i’m 28, keep up the good work man you’ll be rich one day doin what you love
Awesome work man. I also have a G0704. One suggestion though - that drill chuck that comes with it is awful. It has around .010" of runout. I highly suggest getting something like a RoHM Supra series, or a Shars keyless integral chuck. Both get around .002" of runout.
Great job. My advice though, definitely make a metal case so that all those gears can be submerged in an oil bath, otherwise all that work will quickly destroy itself at RPM. You also would need a thin oil for the chains and thick for the gears, something like a 0-50 weight oil
Excellent build. I've seen a few gokart gearbox fabrications, all good ones too, but nothing with a reverse. Also looking forward to seeing seeing how you figure out linkage. Perhaps heed the advice of the other comments on here for bearings, lubrication etc. Yet, you just carry on carrying on, whatever happens will be well worth the effort, and you will learn a lot if you didn't know it already. Plus we enjoy watching you do it. Cheers for now:)
Excellent work, a dream engineering job for the home workshop. Will you be encasing it to keep it oiled and clean? and will you be bushing the free gears with bronze to extend life and stop galling? Anyway, full marks for a brilliant concept into reality video.. Cheers.
Great, great, GREAT video! I would like to hear a bit more of this is what we’re doing here and there. And even more than that, I’d like to hear a retrospective, here’s what I did and why/how; as well as issues encountered and your problem solving solutions. With that said; what an incredible design. I don’t think I could get my head wrapped around that thing, and design it. What a great job bud!
I really like the idea of adding additional gears and reverse. I just wonder if something like that would be able to handle a lot of torque in a pulling tractor, lawnmower size of course.
Dam phone's where was I oh that's right Mark your center hight on the shank of your bolt & cut the bolt to that hight give yourself about 1/8" th clearance on the under side use the nut to lock the bolt at the center height. You can setup your tooling in seconds and you don't have to scurry across to your toolbox to get a ruler. I hope this advice could be of help to you. Keep up the the great videos Kiwi Rodney
How did you start learning these skills? Half the time I don’t even know what tools you’re using exactly, and there just seems to be so much to know. It’s a very impressive skill set, and infinitely useful. Keep up the awesome content!
Totally new here on this channel, so please forgive my ignorance, but why did we use the rotary head for the bolt pattern instead of jogging to the points?
Would it not have been much more cost efficient to buy the couplers pre made? I have never worked with them but have seen them for sale. Maybe I am missing or not understanding properly?
I think that is so cool that you can make all that stuff your self.. a real joy to watch.. Im thinking about taking some machining classes after watching you.. so Awesome..:)
Good. Finally someone with enough guts to attempt a forward & reverse mini transmission build. Nice work so far. Give it a lid that's wide, and easy to remove because without roller bearings for each sprocket and dog-clutch, it'll need periodic rebuilding. I recommend synthetic 90 weight oil for it. It'll give it the best chance. Thanks for the vid, man!
This kid's Got Talent always wait very impatiently for the next video just amazes me what he can do for his age can't wait do some kind of meet I'll be honored to meet this kid in person keep up the good work videos dude they're awesome also like the bloopers at the end keep that up as well

Thank you for the calming music.
Great video I enjoyed it lol great vibes from it
wow massively impressive!
Awesome vid, editing, idea and work!!! YOU ROCK!!!
Would it not have been much more cost efficient to buy the couplers pre made? I have never worked with them but have seen them for sale. Maybe I am missing or not understanding properly?
Mad awesome machining skills you have there.
I think that is so cool that you can make all that stuff your self.. a real joy to watch.. Im thinking about taking some machining classes after watching you.. so Awesome..:)
Good. Finally someone with enough guts to attempt a forward & reverse mini transmission build. Nice work so far. Give it a lid that's wide, and easy to remove because without roller bearings for each sprocket and dog-clutch, it'll need periodic rebuilding. I recommend synthetic 90 weight oil for it. It'll give it the best chance. Thanks for the vid, man!

2nd looks like it's going to be super steep to jump from 1st. Can't wait to see how it works in a cart! Subbed just to keep up with this build
