Thanks Brad, and Hugh! I already know what color. But I'm not telling
While those previous wheel mounts took me over 2 hours to knock out, I just built these in 1h20m. I'm not timing myself, I just happen to look at clocks. I AM interested in how long things take. Ask my wife. Drives her crazy! "Can I show you a video?" "How long is it?" "Does it matter?" Uh.... no comment...
Step 1 was to cut 3" lengths of angle iron.
Step 2: Trim those down in the shorter axis. They're just a bit too long.
Step 2: Make the cutout for the axle, using the previous version as a template.
Step 3: Make them no wider than the 3/4" square tube they're getting welded to:
And now they look done, sort of.
Except they aren't. NOW the look more done:
On to the next steps. That'll be next week though. Tomorrow I'm going to the Museum of Flight in Seattle. Looking forward to that a LOT.
