Hope were going to see some action pictures of your new toy
Will do! In the process of making up a set of dual wheels and it's not an easy task, should be worth the effort in the end though!
Few pics of the latest project, not sure if this should be in the restoration thread though! Have been toying with the idea of making myself a roller for a while now and managed to source a couple of drums. The ends were rotten so cut out the old and welded in new, plus heavier bushings on the end and knocked up another frame. The curved section I salvaged from the old frame. Towing hitch is from hardox plate (some left over from my grab project). Paint job is a 2 pack dark grey (it was all I had to hand). Used yesterday and pleased to say no leaks Should be good for all the years I'm going to need it now.

claw hammer, mole grips and side cutters. All essential in a build.
It looks like I'm not the only man who keeps a box of triangle offcuts.

Snap!
I have hidden a container of 2 stroke oil and my new earth clamp in plain sight
both of which would make for a good rainy day job.
