Tanks guys
Freud and Tman; I built a table about 700mm (2'3") high and 900mm(3') wide so it's not too bad to work on.
Saltwheels; I'm going to wrap the the headers to keep the heat down, if it's not enough I will get a blanket.
Dave picked up some steel for me yesterday;
Today I turned it into a blank for the back hub;
My little lathe has a decent throw but inly a small chuck so had to bore them on the mill.
The bottom flange is for the brake disk, it will have an adaptor bolt up to it as the flange has to be small enough for the wheel to go over it.
Centre flange is for the wheel mount, wheel bolts up from the bottom side.
Top flange is the sprocket carrier, it's that thick so I can machine a step in it to locate the sprocket.
Cheers
