We hit some snags with the kids on winter break, so the axles are keeping us from getting this guy running. Here's how we left it before the Holidays:
My lathe guy assured me that our parts would be done by our next meeting, so we'll see if this thing runs before Kick-off.
Here's a render of the finished product that I may as well post up since someone (Andrew...) made me talk about it in the EWCP Christmas Cast:
And Brando, to follow up, I had the chance to test the press fit on one of the colson plugs at the machine shop with a few of the guys. Pressed the hub into the colson, clamped the wheel into the vice, then used a Torque Wrench to apply Torque. We found out that I wan't strong enough to apply more than 80 ft-lbs of Torque before stopping. (Interestingly enough, the tread of the wheel started to deform after ~50ft-lbs of TQ or so, pretty sure they'll rarely see more than that during competition.)
