Thanks ten truckloads,Tinny! I don't believe I would have found those little tidbits without your help. My progress is slow, (because of lack of a few tools and $) but I am still on the project. I am saving all the #7 videos to maybe one day build one of them, but I believe I will also be using some of the older videos for a type of MBD/Atomic Zombie/Original hybrid. I have been taking pictures as I go along to maybe eventually tell of my journey into the realm of recumbent tadpoles. I have no blueprints, just a bunch of videos and pdf's to go by; so I guess I'm just a "seat of the pants" designer. I am still lacking a few parts, but I am finding them gradually. I have everything I need to build my trailer, so I might start with it first. 20" bicycle wheels, chopped up shopping cart, and an aluminum walker. If you develop a desire to discuss a trailer for a tadpole trike, I would love to hear your input. Thanks again and keep the designs flowing!

The front wheels and camber is quite difficult, a malt is maybe a better option, made from wood or metal.

Great videos Tinny. Question, have you built trikes for other people? If so, how did you handle the business end of it such as warranty and so forth? Thanks for your time.

John Anderson i have gifted four trikes to local people but sold none.

I guess you drilled and tapped the hole on the end of the axle to screw the silver bolt in so the washers held the wheel. Do you see any problem tapping a thread on the end of the axle instead and using washers and a nut instead? Same difference I expect but I thought I'd ask. Also, you didn't mention anything about camber in your axle angle. I've seen plenty of commercial velos and trikes with some noticeable camber built in and wondered what your thoughts on that were. Perhaps it's a paved road kind of thing?

I have seen the trikes with a lot of camber but most have done this to put the wheel at a better angle when making a sharp high speed turn and not for regular straight driving. There are a lot of different ways to do this and my way is just one. I don't do any high speed sharp turns so this works very well for me.

My Goodness that is a severe weld! I am just over yonder perhaps I could drop by and help you with your welding. I have like 28 plus years exp. why don't you make your own kingpins out of aluminum you have a lathe easy cut to make threads.

I have been welding for 45 years. Starter on cat bulldozers. The problem is not the operator it is the low quality and too small welder. Have built 12 of these trikes only had one weld problem and that was simply a missed weld.

Ok so why not buy 16 mm bolts and turn them down to 15 too easy with your lathe!
@johnaustin73237 жыл бұрын
Why not just take a piece of stock and turn to the size you want and forget the bolt altogether. The point is if you do not have a lathe this is a heads up for that person. In other words don' t expect it to be as easy as just buying a bolt.
