--- Quote from: -steves- on November 04, 2011, 04:28:44 AM ---I would be very interested on how you done those holes in the wheels? Are they 2 parts each and then joined, if so, how are they joined? If they are single part, how on earth did you get holes like that? :bugeye: I am wathcing this thread with great interest :thumbup: --- End quote --- The wheels are done in two parts. The center disk is just pressed in. I cut the half-holes around the outside with an end mill. I was going to use small screws from the rim into the center disk, but the fit is tight enough I don't think I'll need it. |

Ya, I had asked this guy if he was planning on posting any more videos of his steam trike. He came through with another video yesterday. Love that machine! I'm hoping my boiler and steam engine will be big enough for it. Chuck |
