Thanks that what I was thinking his setup is way overboard to not be really accomplishing anything. In the case of the gear less is much more.phreerider said:they are plastic . they are petroleum based. eventually the plastic WILL start to absorb the oil, the plastic will become soft.
even for a metal set, its way too much, load and heat dispersion for metal is still pretty light. its a bit much and a very messy....and will become oil dirt soup quick.
i would consider the metal or plastic, virtually maintenance free.
light lithium coat every now and then
true, so for scale application it is a reality.Ice_2k said:To be fair, real cars gearboxes are filled with oil, so...I don't think it's a bad idea for metal gears if properly sealed.
the oil is to keep friction off the gears in gear boxes, to keep the teeth from wearing out. not sure how plastic will do or what type of plastic is used on the cogs.Ice_2k said:To be fair, real cars gearboxes are filled with oil, so...I don't think it's a bad idea for metal gears if properly sealed.
