Hi, I compared prices and Hurdy Gurdy crafters doesn't seem too bad after all. Still I will go on the creativity tour with this one and buy bits and pieces here and there and see how far that brings me. Still what I gather from the boisbuis pricelist doesn't sound bad either but I wished it had pics. I am happy with the list completing the Dutch book. I found the book (in Dutch) and bought it. I am having so much fun building gurdy #1 that I am pretty sure that #2 will follow soon after and I thought of basing the next one on the book. Measurements at least.

Oh thank you, I wans't finding the direct link and was dreading <click> here, now <click> here, etc. The book was originally in Dutch and the supplement is for completing that project.... but it is invaluable info for just about any gurdy. As for the question "What about Hurdy Gurdy Crafters?" The answer is "I don't know."

I am thankful to have discovered them. For me to make a brass 'S' shaped crank from 1/8" material would probably take a couple of hours at least, so $38 is a steal. Where I live machinists charge $80/hr plus materials. Custom machine shops here won't look at a job under $500, so if you can get a shaft for $45 I really believe it's a bargain. Incidentally, I am not connected with any of these suppliers.

Good luck having it made. Everyone I've spoken to puts it together from pieces mostly gather from a hardware store. There's a placle locally called "Fort Worth Bolt and Tool that sells . Cold steel rod, ball bearings and stop collars. ( You can get a pretty clear Idea from the "Dutch Supplement" PDF on www.hurdygurdy.com <http://www.hurdygurdy.com> <http://www.hurdygurdy.com/> .) I used a rod of allthread for my first and the usual nuts and washers: there is some shaping on the head end that probably wouldnt be tried without a metal lathe. As the rod comes in 1 yard ( a little shorter than a meter ) lentghts, I made up a half dozen blanks. That lathe is not inaccesible and I don''t know what I'm going to do next time.... Good luck either way.

I am having loads of fun with it because it actually starts to look like one and a really nice one too... But now I am getting to the hardware stage. I need an axel and wheel and the hardware bits and pieces belonging to that. Now I found two options in the internet.... Crap, but cheap and without a wheel: http://www.harpkit.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=hurdhdwe&Category_Code= <http://www.harpkit.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=hurdhdwe&Category_Code=> <http://www.harpkit.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=hurdhdwe&Category_Code=> Nice stuff but expensive: http://www.hurdygurdycrafters.com/parts.asp I don't speak French!: http://www.boisbuis.com/ Now the most important thing to me is the axel and hardware like flange and bearings. Does anyone have an address where I can have it made? Thanks!!! Douwe ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
