Hi, I'm working on my first build and have a few questions. I'd like to do a chain drive weed wacker motor.

I'll need a jackshaft, but would rather not buy a kit. I'm just brainstorming, but would i be able to take something like a detached bottom bracket, attach the proper sprockets on each end, and mount it on the bike somewhere behind the existing BB? It would be a bit more complicated than that, but basically, do you think it would be possible? Any ideas?
Thanks
Tom
