It is years since I built anything motorised. I now find myself with a motor and worm drive, the latter with a hole too small for the 1.5mm shaft on the motor. I have nasty memories of trying to fit a worm years ago and bending the motor shaft.
How does one go about fitting a worm gear - successfully? I would use a vice but the length of the motor shaft exceeds the maximum opening of the jaws unless I used my woodworking bench vice which has wooden jaw faces.
Whilst I am asking questions, what are thoughts on flywheels?
