  10. Sometimes it boils down to what grade is commonly available in the size/shape you need. In this case, 4130 is nomally what you can get in thin-walled tubing. 4140 is supplied in bar stock for machining use. Because of the lower carbon carbon the 4130 is not as strong but is also more ductile (less brittle) than 4140. Try checking for a Metal Supermarkets in your area. I love that place! Both are hard to weld properly. Make sure the proper welding rod is used as well as a proper pre-heat and post weld heat.
  11. 15ft? that's a pretty tight turn to be doing at 35mph? but understand what you mean I think! Can you analyze an assembly of parts with solidworks? I can analyze assemblies.
  12. I wonder, Do you plan on going around a 15 ft radius turn at 35 mph or 75....... the forces between the two are drastically different. Maybe somewhere in between?
  13. Rule of thumb........... overload the model and see what breaks. :cool: I'm looking forward to playing with another type of problem. :blink:
  14. I use Solid Works about every day. Well, ok my drafters do. I mainly use it for stress analysis. Send me your part file, detailed material/heat treat specs, and some potential loads and I will do some analysis for you. I can probably do some fatigue analysis if I take the time to learn that part. :cool:
  15. Looks good Seb. You may not like the sprocket black there, but you are more than welcome to come clean the sprocket on my 1R sometime. I am sure you will do it once. BTW........ are you going to ride this thing? It may a bit too clean for that. :cool:
