I then created a simple frame from square basswood (10” x 10”
scale) to hold the H-beams 1” apart, measured between their
innermost edges, and trimmed extensions on the Tamiya wheels
to fit (6).
I created a simple frame from square basswood to hold the
H-beams one inch apart measured between their innermost
edges. I then trimmed the extensions on the Tamiya wheels
to fit.
I made a simple 2-¼” x 4-½” lower platform structure to hold
the conveyor belt (7). Next I glued 1/8” x 3/8” slats, leaving
a center hole for the conveyor. The conveyor is attached to
the platform by the axle running from the motor through the
wooden frame and an end hole in the H-beams. I also glued
7: The base of the simple platform I made to house the
bottom end of the conveyor.
