Its too fast

 Got round to trying the #electric tower winch ..if the motor had got enough poke it would of been up in 10 secs .It needs a reduction .Just so happens I've got the one left which I didn't use from the rotator :-).


By mounting the box here, if its still to fast i can put another chain reduction on it LOL .It will do 3 rpm as oppose 30 before .



Of course its never all straight forward over here ...the box is imperial ,they don't do metric imperial motor couplers so ive made one ...yes yes ill get some grub screws ,but for the time being they will suffice. These will also provide the drive (cant cut internal keyways here ) being as they are on the low torque side it should be fine if they break ,the worm drive will hold the tower up .



A bit more tomorrow
