I'm looking out my window at the 21" of snow on the ground. It supposed to snow another 8" or so before letting up sometime at the end of today here in Maryland. In the meantime I'm about 1/2 finished my newest friction drive build using a Ryobi 31 cc string trimmer motor. I've made everything myself with only simple hand tools and scrap aluminum and a motor shaft off of a 1/2 shaft blower motor I had lying around. I hope my brother-in-law never asks for his string trimmer back that I took custody of 2 years ago when he left it at my house. I'm mounting it on a 24" mountain bike that my neighbor donated to my bike collection. Here are some pics, and I threw in a pic of my finished expansion chamber that I modded on my HT. I still need to get the bearings and friction roller from BMP.
