During the past couple of weeks I worked on the universal joints. I always make them myself, mainly because they need to be very specific in size, but also because good quality universal joints are very expensive. The final assembly of the joints is always tricky, because I solder the pins (1/16" diameter) in from the center and the solder easily flows in the wrong spaces. It needs to be heated just enough for the solder to flow, but not too long. I had a cup of water handy to cool it down quick once I thought it was done.
In the pictures the motor is directly connected to the transfer box, but I might add a 2-speed gearbox. I want to first try out the speeds and see if this is the right motor, etc.
