Was figuring out the front wheel mount and found a potential problem. Decided the inner shaft collars against the wheel were a bad idea (in case they come loose) and making a couple of bearings to keep the wheel centered in the fork would be a good idea. (I call them bearings but they are really spacers since they don't need to turn - but bearings works better for the title of the blog.) My method for getting a nice square cut by hand instead of my chop saw is to wrap the piece squarely with paper cut to the appropriate width and mark it with a Sharpe - the paper edge gives me a nice sharp line to follow. I cut them a tad long and ground them down till they were just hair tight. Finished all the welds that were only tacked together and the front fork is done. 70,83,43,0,B
Excellent. I do wish you were still around here.
