Making a Battery Brush Cutter From Scrap

[@mortanicus5871]

I like the way you locked the drive gear to the hub with a machine screw. It's like a keyway and a locking bolt all in one! Awesome!

[@yoshisaidit7250]

setscrew would be better if ever need to take it apart.

[@gregorscott]

I recently converted an old 2 stroke trimmer to 36V battery powered. Was heavily inspired by this video. I direct drive the shaft with A 24V HVAC blower motor. Overvolting to 36V with 2 18V batteries gets the the RPM on par with 2 stroke and roughly the same total power output.

[@Lucas_sGarage]

pro tip: when you are cutting metal with hole saws (especially large ones) to avoid the hole saw from jamming up into the steel and splitting your hand into two, clamp the steel with some c clamps, (you will also save motor power doing this)

Very nice. I have an old gas powered and an old 24 VDC battery powered. It was very easy to reuse the old parts. Looking forward to next great video.

Awesome project Maciej.✨ Thank you for sharing 🙏

[@PopaAlexandru.]

Interesting. Everything done properly. I have some doubts about the long-term capacity of power tools. The relatively large torque compensates for the relatively low power. The donor seems to have a ~ 1500W motor in the glory days. Does the current motor have 150W? How long does the battery last?

Might have to do this. I have a 1kw motor from an electric lawnmower + a dead 2 stroke line trimmer 😁

[@Tetratronic]

The way you design circuit boards is just crazy. It's insane how well you put together different disciplines of engineering. Also, you cut metal with an angle grinder like a pro.

Congratulation , crasy project very good

[@emaillistutum3378]

[@Dr.Scorpio]

Great improvisation 👌🏼 Thanks for the video.

[@OnlyNotes]

I'm not sure if that motor is really meant for constant duty... Like, running it at it's rated voltage for 10-15 minutes at a time. Then again I guess it would get a cooldown in between battery charge cycles.

Certainly helps when you have a shop with every machine imaginable. Circuit board making and 3d printing and so forth. But is really that much cheaper than just buying am battery operated one?

[@takix2007]

I don't think the goal is to make something cheap, it is rather to do something with a tool that would otherwise be garbage.

[@margran1]

This video is awesome. Well done. Please answer the following questions: What is the run time like with the battery you made? What is the Ah rating of the battery you made? How does the performance compare to a gas version?

[@chongshenchang9367]

I think it won't last an hour because that motor draws a lot of amps.

[@jclowe735]

@@chongshenchang9367 makes you think what would a 775 DC motor do if it was used as a replacement for the gas engine.

[@chongshenchang9367]

@@jclowe735 Oh shitty.. cowdung.. 775 motors comes in 12v and 24v, if you want maximum power out of it, you'll need more amps and make sure you have spare batteries coz it draws lots of amps while in action.

[@jclowe735]

@@chongshenchang9367 hmm that's something to think about.

[@gizmobrain]

​@@chongshenchang9367I got my hands on a similar motor and it pulls 2 amps at no load (12vdc) and I pressed the Shaft down on a tiled floor to resemble a high load condition trying to stop the rotation which it didn't but started pulling 8 ish amps. Hope that helps.

[@Hulken_no]

Interesting, but I think a new brush cutter would cost much less than for the new motor, buying and making parts, time used, compared to the result. How long runtime do the battery give you? How many hours did you put into it? How many parts were all new?

If you keep the motor unit near to the blade, you can avoid the rod (shaft) and its weight, so you can save much energy. Good luck

[@gizmobrain]

Yes that's correct. But the leverage to balance the rod while maneuvering left and right swing will be a problem. Motor at the lower end will make it very heavy to move. But your point is valid. Can be mounted on couple of wheels to roll on the ground thereby relieving us of the load.

The angle on the handle is all wrong :-D You are leaning forward when using it, and that stresses your back. It's designed to be at a 90 degree angle to the main rod.
