on the last video at the 33 min mark l screwed up and missed a clip explaining how the trans works, so for those who care, this is what got dropped, and l cant go back in and fix it as yt got rid of the editing feature,

In the 1900's that drive disc was used in stationary steam engines. They used a glued compressed paper disc. Commonly in mills and factories.
Hey Mustie1,, Question for you about the disk plate. I have a rear engine Ariens 10/28 riding mower which I'm about to change the rubber drive wheel.it has the same setup with the drive disk mechanism. I changed the rubber wheel about 1.5 years ago and ran good. Rubber is now falling apart on that wheel. The question is should the disk plate the rubber wheel rides on be sanded real smooth and polished or should it be just left alone.? There is no rust on it or grooves,pits,etc. but it's not real shiny either. Thanks ahead of time if you find time to answer . I've been watching the hell out of your vids on tv and really enjoy the motorized bike ones . 🙂 Thanks, Jim K. Rockford,IL
Thank you for the information..
Ive replaced the rubber part on this transmission before you explained it very well !
For some models, you can get Silicone replacement friction wheels, They have the advantage that they will never turn hard in cold weather, so you get alot better function in the real cold…
Those drive systems are pretty slick. Thanks for explaining how it works Mustie!!
Good old Snapper friction drive .
Thank you, explains a lot. Aloha
Nicely explained. Easy simple system.
I thought you missed a clip "on" the machine not "of" the machine! Ha Ha
A REAL gearhead is not afraid of getting his hands dirty, greasy, or oily.. You are a TRUE gearhead. 🔧⚙
That form of disk drive was also a major component of WW II submarine torpedo guidance computers.
I have this same set up. What a nightmare! It fell apart somehow in the middle of a blizzard. Miraculously somehow I put it back together using an online schematic with two unknown washers left over. It works better than before .
Snowblowers use a form of friction drive — not very efficient, but adequate.
Thanks for that one. You mentioned in the first vid that it was a transmission and I’m like…. where are the gears or chains? Now it totally makes sense.
The reverse speed on snow blowers has forever been too slow. I could do my driveway so much faster if I could back-up faster.
Thanks, Mustie1!!! When I put my snowblower to sleep for the summer, I always take off the belly pan to clean and lubricate "the innards" and have always wondered how this machine functioned. Your explanation was terrific. I love your channel and have enjoyed watching your subscriber list grow. I’m an old guy and I get a real kick out of watching you work. You’re so talented and creative and seem to enjoy what you do. You also have a wonderful sense of humor! The one thing you’ve taught me, when performing any task, is to be more patient and stay curious. Thank you for hours of entertainment and education. My very best to you for continued success and happiness. Hi to Lilly ðŸ˜
At first I thought this video was about a metal clip you forgot to re-install during the first video
The Plymouth Locomotive Company (no relation to the car maker) used a similar, scaled up mechanical transmission on their small industrial locomotives weighing up to several tons. (The drive disc was 2-3 feet in diameter.) However, Plymouth used torque converter and later electric drive systems and their larger locomotives since they were stronger and resisted slipping. Their early loco's had no guards between the engineer and the rotating transmission machinery that were partially inside the cab. Watch your fingers!
This does tie up some loose ends and continuation errors I noticed on the last video, thank you.
This is a good 'How it works' video. Don't forget to use tags to get more views.
Mustie please make longer video's more often then once or twice a week I love your channel and would love to watch it everyday after work if I could thanks your fan Travis Rynning in Seattle,Washington
Nice of you to put in this missing footage. I figured it out when I saw the main video, it's a clever way to do a simple, effective multi-speed (with reverse) trans for a light-duty machine such as a blower or such. You also confirmed what I was wondering about — the broken corner tabs off the belly pan that you had intended to fix, and apparently you did. Job well done, as always.

It's like the Blair Witch Project (Found Footage) of Snowblower repairs.
Now it will never snow
Cool to see how it works.
I WAS WONDERING WHY YOU DIDNT CHANGE THE RUBBER WHEEL, GLAD TO HEAR IT STILL HAS TITS.
Wtf ?.
Strange. 14 views and 174 thumbs up. I wonder how that could be.
Bloopers with Mustie… just giving ya a hard time Darrin.
This snow blower seems like it has low hours, almost like new just mis-used maybe
what ever happened to trailer trash?
thanks Mustie1 for the info great vids
Could be worse, I missed out a whole video when fixing up my Honda EX650 generator… 😛
The old rear engine snapper riding mowers had the same drive system along with the snapper self propelled push mowers we had both when i was growing up i have replaced a many of the rubber drive wheels on both of them
Mustie now has trailers for his videos. How about some bloopers!
Hate when that happens!
Did you lose the clip or do you have gremlins????lol..lol..lol…it was probably missing you wouldn't miss a silly little clip…
