Hi all,
I added 20 pictures of the building process of my motorized throttle for my B737 flightdeck.

Hope it inspires you.

Very impressive! I'm a huge fan of belts.
Your craftsmanship and engineering skills are superior, very well done. I hope you continue to post and contribute to this site. Thank-you for your photos.
Outstanding work. Quite impressive design and craftmanship.
Having flown Peters sim i can add that this is the most impressive 737 throttle i've ever played with !! (except for the real one that is ;-) )
I'm really happy Peter is helping me motorize my real 200 throttle now.

All I can say is........Wow..........
WOW:shock: It looks like a real throttle:D Can I ask you how did you make the metal parts ? You made them yourself ?
Great work..
Maxime.
Thank you, thank you, for your encouraging comments.
Maxime, indeed I made the metal parts myself, except the speedbrake. All parts are aluminium. I am the lucky owner of a small CNC machine. That forces me to translate my sketches in autocad drawings. Sometimes a bit time-consuming, but it has the advantage that it helps discovering any design faults in the first stages of building parts. If I would'nt do that, I always get parts that don't fit or just have wholes in the wrong places.
I think that patience and a steady hand often can compete with a CNC machine. All parts you see in my throttle, could be made by hand. If you make a good drawing first and take your time.
