Check your PM, Josh..

Thats a lot of grease in there! Looks strange, contaminated?
Now you got me curious about your mod!

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #863 on:** May 05, 2019, 09:20:29 AM »

Looks like it has water in it...

Here is Josh video..

No to both. Just a very weird "snotty" type grease. So as the motor shaft spins the 3 prongs ride up and down 3 different ramps. That grease has some magic to it since the plastic doesn't wear away. Looks like regular plastic.
My "fix" is a piece of aquatherm pipe that's nearly lab grade plastic. Hoping the grease doesn't break it down.

Thanks Roy. For some reason I can't load video. Daughter using laptop for school

If this works I'll get that last bit of oscillation out.

Josh is that the right video?

goobersan · « **Reply #866 on:** May 05, 2019, 11:14:04 AM »

If it isn't me riding a unicorn holding a pink bow it's definitely the right video

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #867 on:** May 05, 2019, 11:14:44 AM »

Youtube blocked that video of your pink skirt:)

Flem · « **Reply #868 on:** May 05, 2019, 11:59:43 AM »

Looks like your still getting some oscillation?

goobersan · « **Reply #869 on:** May 05, 2019, 12:35:03 PM »

Just a bit. Wasn't sure how it would work out. After the next couple bows I'll take it apart, check for wear, and make the piece of pipe an 1/8" longer.
So far it's doing fine. Got the fades sanded down. Not much of an issue with that little bit of oscillation

Ok been doing jigs today. They are a pain but better than fitting the riser every time. This on has a petite little 13 in.riser. .004 limb taper and lots of reflex.

I made Roy a gizmo out of fancy curly wood of some kind that he graciously donated to my St Jude Gizmo project. I used iron nitrate stain to bring out the curl like I do on a flintlock.

It still needs a few more coats of Tru-oil.

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #876 on:** May 08, 2019, 09:47:50 AM »

Thanks Eric, that's sharp.

Was that from the piece of wood that had the round cut on the end?

I don't know what kind of wood it was.

Pat B · « **Reply #877 on:** May 08, 2019, 10:02:07 AM »

Eric, there were a lot of Gizmo's around the bow shop at the Classic. They all got a lot of use.

Crooked Stic · « **Reply #878 on:** May 08, 2019, 10:12:54 AM »

That's a nice one. Be sure to send structions.so Elroy ain't scratin his hair out.
