adla Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 a little progress....I managed the other 3 spokes (router and sander)...and the new wheel is lOokin mondo gooOd. it is still too hot to be outside for me ...i am a hot house flower...a petunia...not into the HEAT...but remarkably after labor day it cools down here to almost cold (for a desert rat) and i can resume my speedy gonzales pace....

capt jake Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Ohh, Ahh, very nice! Do you always have to show that awesome saw and fence system you have? LOL ;) Lapping the drolo of of the keyboard......... :roll: Quote
Barry Pyeatt Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Is that all there is? Kinda flimsy looking unless you have some secret hidden metal parts to hold those spokes steady. Oh, nice saw and fence too! :wink: Quote
adla Posted August 31, 2004 Author Posted August 31, 2004 thaz it so far...working on the metal parts or rather... perhaps dowels and epoxy with a little 404 filler...which always makes me think of the C. W. McCall: "old home filler up and keep on a truckin' cafe" song.... i fired up the air in the shop today and after an hour it was still hot...i don't dig the heat i just live in the great basin....when it coOls off..hang on to yer shorts the bOAt will get DOne...... a.

Barry Pyeatt Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 thaz it so far...working on the metal parts or rather... perhaps dowels and epoxy a. I used biscuits to join mine and it is incredibly strong. But then my wheel is a full 1" thick with a full hub too. Quote
Jan Williamson Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Looking good Adla! What I want to know is... where's the sawdust? Quote
Johannah Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 The spokes look great, but now you're going to have me singing "Wolf Creek Pass" and all those other crazy songs all day and my family will refuse to have anything to do with me. :shock: Quote
adla Posted August 31, 2004 Author Posted August 31, 2004 jan - pspsppss i vacuum up before i take pictures usually.....there is some dust in the dust collector Jo - Let me help...."Way up on the great divide...truckin' on down the other side...." people act like they don't like CW McCall and then they ask you to make them a tape or something....uh huh....i listen to it after 15 years still because it never fails to make me smile... Barry gave me an idea with his solid hub talk....hrm....maybe i will turn the air on in the shop now...for later...hrmmm a. Quote
Johannah Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 It's the "grade A cluckers" line that starts the uproar around here. That and my laughing like a maniac while driving and singing. Why do they hate it when I sing and drive, and I can actually sing? Quote
