I've been working on building a tire machine and I have the base all done but I have hit a snag in the project with the motor. I had a 1/4 horse electric motor that I was going to gear down using a bunch of sets of bike gears but that's proven to be way too much work. For those of you who have built your own tire machines; what motors/ transmissions did you use to make them? I've heard people use cement mixer motors but I don't own one and it seems like a waste to throw the rest of it away
