Ominous feelings
Monday, February 05, 2007
Its a comfort to know, when you're singing the hit the road blues, that anywhere you could possibly be after New York would be a pleasure cruise.

This backlash is really killing me.
Eating me from the inside out is the fact that I cant seem to point out the reason for it. The cogs are meshed correctly, its angle allowing for a more gradual, and therefore smoother motion within the two wheels.
It wasnt always this way with me.
I was always opting for the straight-cut spurs. But then I found its simple construction isnt enough to compensate for its ear-splitting whine characteristics. Besides, i am in dire need for larger power transmissions. And I mean dire.
Still it wouldn't hurt to exercise caution. Especially since the last gear train I tried to work with broke down abruptly, almost smashing me into pieces. So Im trying to keep the pitch line velocity to a minimum which would also facilitate in noise abatement (i hope). BUt even then, this ominous feeling still wont go.
I can only hope the train would hold out long enough. Gears and pinions can only take so much. And even now, the ominous creaking sound is starting to give me the shivers. Being in the middle of another machinery breaking down isnt a very good prospect for me at this time.
