I need the spring for the drive belt on the pulley thats on the end of the crankshaft. The garter spring can expand when the steam engine dumped the torqe during the power stroke. Its got mad torque. I am gonna make a few tools that will be driven off a series of jack shaft. A trip hammer, bandsaw, a waterpump, some whimsical stuff like a ferris wheel and an elephant drinking a beer. Maybe a merry-go-round with mopeds on it.
The spring comes apart if you super carefully find the magic spot where its attached and untwist it. then I can daisy chain a bunch together. I found a few oilseals in the bottom of my trash can. The bearing shop in town doesn't have any old seals. So i thought I'd see if all yall have any. I just need a bunch of oil seals some of the diffrent seals sizes have springs that are different sizes. Some of the same size oilseal but with dual flange vs single flange are different sized spring diameter.
