i was posting pics in my lathe thread in the open section and thought i'd post this here since some guys dont look in there.
i made like 10 of these back in the late 80s in my high schools metal shop. after breaking and buying a $75 new honda axle only to bend it with in months i made these out of tool steel in shop class and handed them out to my buddys.
i just gound the wrench end square and used an ajustable wrench to tighten them but these axles did not bend or break. the factory axle i broke busted right at the step.
i just found this and got to thinking back to my trike days so thats why im posting.....anyone else got pics of odd things they made?
