I must find some time to do a tool like that. :jaw:

Jason,
I forgot to add that my tophats had a drop of loctite on them. But it wouldn't really matter if the inner did turn a bit. It is the extra couple of thou that is the important part.
I had to use some sort of spacer in the middle anyway, as the thru hole was 3/8" whereas my fixings were only 6mm, so a tophat was the easiest way for me to go.
The main problem is that inner and outer races are invariably the same width, so if the inner race is tightened down onto say a fairly rough machined surface, then the surface under the inner race could collapse even a tiny amount, 1 thou would be enough to cause problems, that then allows the free outer race to bind up on the surface. Hence the need to keep the inner race slightly higher.
The flywheel is already done.
BTW, I never trust spokes at all, they can be almost anywhere, especially if they are tapered like mine were, and can easily dressed up if they are out anyway.

Made a single ended version similar to Bogs today and already don't know how I have managed so long without one.
Thanks for the inspiration.
