Flywheel thought.
So every once in a while i get an idea (GASP) that i think is worth mentioning so here goes.
Lightweight flywheels are pretty pricey.
why not just mill down a stock one?
put it on a metal lathe and have at the back of one of those *******!
or is that a bad idea? only thing i can think of is the counterweight being a problem causing inbalance in the lathe
