Here are some shots of assembling parts for a homemade centrifugal clutch. Due to the lack of a lathe, I had to get by in this way. For the clutch, I used sections of pipes of 4 diameters, a friction lining and sheet iron. The clutch is made by analogy with the American classic unit. As for the rotation of the driven housing on the crankshaft, there are no bearings or bushings, just iron on iron in oil. One of the reasons for this action is the fit of the sprocket of the minimum permissible size to maintain the correct gear ratio in the transmission. The purpose of this whole undertaking is to test my idea of making a clutch with my own hands from what is available. Just because I want to. THANKS)
