B_Regal Racing said:That contraption is perfect. Now you know I'm going to ask a few more questions about it...bracketracer said:BRR,
Instead of using some sort of jawed chuck, how about if you had something that the wheel could slip over? I made these to fit on a Pinecar wheel arbor. The different steps fit stock BSA's, 2.0g SS wheels, and 1g MA's. If I run into a wheel that doesn't fit snug, I just secure it with a wrap of painter's tape.
Did you turn a piece of aluminum stock on a lathe? One is aluminum, the other I turned from Delrin.
Is it mounted on a wheel mandrel, or is it completely constructed from scratch? I used a Pinecar wheel mandrel to mount either one.
It almost looks like I could modify a Forstner bit to build this (remove the teeth to protect the whl)?
You might be able to, or you could just pm me your address and I'll send you the Delrin one. You have to supply your own mandrel though!

Besides all this, what in the world is a treenail? I can only speculate that a treenail is to resemble a branch on a tree in the world of model making.
It's a fastener!
bracketracer said:Joe, are you looking for something wider that would help with positioning?

That may take some doing to sort them all out.
