Easy for me to see....... I'll let you stew on it for a couple days to try and figure it out. It's not that hard if you think about the operation that is needed..........

i was waiting for a response from someone to post about this.

took me 5 minutes to figure that one out... If need be, i'll give fahcue a day before i post a picture on how. There's probably a different way then what I'm thinking, however.

To be honest the only way to go about it is the way its done on the bosch screwdriver mod, forget the gearbox and fit a cam to the motor though.

are you implying that ive been here and havent seen your bosch thread

ive read it but iam more a picture guy, you know wat they say a picture means 1000 words.... or somthing like that. I know you do have links there but they arnt working for me they just go to random pictures..

by **mckutzy** » 29 Dec 2005 19:50

if thats the case ur got about 970 word left. :lol:

.... u have to use a cam on a lever with mabe a spring. think about what way the actions work. or what i can see just afix a weight to the motor spindle, ofset it from the center. this should cause enough vibration to be of some use. oh.... take out the gears.

I have two concepts:

#1 create a pivot hinge behind the gear and create two "ears" to guide the up/down motion and some kind of return spring sytem like a rubberband.

#2remove all gears and create your own pivoting system based on BENDING the motor shaft. I'm working on somthing a lot like this made out of almuminum and steel contact points.
