Big Heavy Wobbler

[kanerdog1X1]

Following The Troubles, things have almost gone full circle. I not do the odd day in AH to help out, two days this week. I mentioned yesterday to one of the lads that works there today that I was missing a load of items after the move. Most of the parts I couldn't care less about, special funnels for filling gearbox oil, an 11L(good for 10L fuel and a dash of 2stroke oil) Gerry can, watering can etc. I can make anything like that again, as it's the items that have gone rather than the skill. One item tho that I couldn't find after the move was the original PC3 bracket way back from page one.  It was titanium, and was one of the first things I made, and I was quite attached to it. I think it was in my big tool box, as I was planning to pick the neoprene off, vapour blast it and apply a new rubber band and neoprene.



Couldn't find it. Anywhere. Looked more than twice.



Eyes lit up when I described it, and out came the step ladder. He'd seen it, it had been tossed up above the false roof area on top of the toilet! I'm so happy. 







I'll be able to finish picking off the neoprene now.

Iv noticed there's an actual 'readers bikes' type section in general, would this thread be better placed there? I wonder if admin could move it for me.

Thanks guys.


Made a start on an odd project at work this last week, and the wobbler came in handy. We have a rolling road at work, and a particular customer wants to be able to run bikes on it, so I set about making a frame so we can run bikes. Its adjustable, so different bikes can sit on it, and Ive run the 14 on it very briefly and all seems well. I only took one pic, right at the start of the project.



If anyone needs a bike, or 2wd car for that matter setting up on the rolling road, we are ready for you.

Bike is now sold, so this will be the end of my contribution to this bike. The new owner may be in here, I'm sure you will make him welcome.
