Re: Colson Wheels

Here is one good way to do Colson hubs http://www.cncbotparts.com/colson_hubs.htm

we took the easy way out and just made a round cylinder to fit the bore. It has an inside keyway for the axle and an outside keyway for the wheel. Instead, we probably could have knurled it and press fitted it even. But I like the CNC Bot Parts style of hubs best.
