Hence why you have to "manage the heat" because a dull cutting tool will cause a lot or friction.

you were right to laugh at him. Leashing your dog into a treadmill is the PEAK of human laziness and lack of proper care for your animal companion. No debate.

For a high energy dog, Crazy is able to be very calm and quiet, + she's super cute! I am looking forward to the rest of the build + more dad jokes + more bloopers and amazing editing!

"All my problems in life can be solved by buying things and receiving them..." Ooof, wasn't looking for a personal callout there Alec

Alec, while the runout you ended up with on the nylon wheels is probably fine for a dog treadmill, another method you could have used to turn them down would be to mount them in the lathe on an axle using the installed bearings. That way, the turned edge of the wheel would be concentric with the axle and bearings. You would need to use a lathe dog (or similar) however to keep the wheel rotating with the axle instead of spinning on the bearings.

i hope people appreciated the Wheeley and Pulley puns, so elegantly mixed in at 4:50

So cool. Really admire what you've done Alec. Love watching your stuff.

Dog Gone! To stop a belt pulling off a pulley, dome it's running surface to the middle, might appear counter-intuative but the tighter centre continues to pull it back to true. Just ask an old steam shop engineer

@@AlecSteele I'm not sure how running a belt on 2 convex pulleys would work, to be honest. Your current set-up should work, but will require both axles to be exactly parallel to each other and perpendicular to the frame. No pressure! It might be worth designing something into the build where you can adjust the axles fore and aft to compensate for any run-out on the belt.

I’ve seen how this plays out in Rick and Morty. Soon enough your dog will find a way to create power for itself.

Man the editing is fantastic! It is always a pleasure to watch your videos! Good job! 👌🤘👏👏

Top notch video editing as usual. 👍

If you have a wheel you want to turn, just machine a boss for the bearing, with a threaded hole on the end, put the wheel on the shaft, and tighten a cup that sits on the wheel's wall. You can use a holesaw for the cup. This also helps with stringing, since you can cut thicker cuts and make it easier, even without using the proper plastic tooth.

put a shopvack just above the cutting tool, where the stingy nylon flies away, it will suck the "filament" right in. You won't have a single piece of plastic in your shop. + it's super satisfying to watch.

Who ever edits your videos does an amazing job props 👍

Metal will usually shrink down the middle of the weld joint. So adding a super thin shim or two in between your blocks and letting it cool while clamped should get you the results you are looking for. Preheating the whole area that you are welding is another way to help.
