I picked up a rusted old Craftsman mower yesterday for free. The mower itself was useless, but the engine runs just fine and puts out 6.6hp!
Sooo... Time to start some sort of project. I'm assuming a kart...
Current issues:
1. Don't have a welder
2. Don't know how to design anything
3. Need lots of parts
4. I'm not sure how the engine actually works (it has an on/off throttle)... how can I get analog adjustments of speed?
Anyone else ever tackle something like this? Hints? Tips? Links?
