An update:
Now many months on and many revolutions later of the worm gear.
Mesh is fine, tracking consistent, checking on the grease every so
often. The only thing not co operating now is the weather
I have the worm gear with index marks now so I can load PEC data
to suit which 'part of the pie' I'm using on a particular series of nights.
The PEC curve varies but only slightly. The PEC for '12 o'clock' isn't
the same as the PEC for the '6 o'clock' , as explained in a previous
post.
The Bartels software allows me to load up a custom PEC curve from
a list. Many nights over many months I have simply been generating
PEC curves and playing in Excel and other software to average and
smooth these curves. I have a pretty good indication of the accuracy
of the hob now and know that another gear (MkII) could have a lot
of things done slightly different to improve the errors I have in this set.
