Have a totally OT question. Wonder what kind of chain is used ? Part of
our school tech wars is building a small wind genny, the required
generator (dc motor) needs to be driven at high revs to compete so gear
up is needed. We've been using plastic gears or cog belts from junk
printers, just wondering if a chain drive would be better ?
