Nice work!

Fantastic ! Same for me, I was about to ask how old it is....
You are a fine artist, really, congratulations !

Beautiful work buddy! Question....why is the motor mounted 90 degrees from the axis of rotation? Is there a right angle drive in the base? If so, why?

[PJs]

Quite a show stopper!! The creative spoke forming was Terrific! A little confused about the drive and how the motor drives the twin roller chain and gears at right angles...conicals on the inside? Thanks for posting this beauty! ~PJ

Another question: When you bent the spokes in the press did you simply rotate the cut plate by the same angle as the taper in the spokes?

I thought the same thing. Good build and I hope to see more and also, hope to get this good someday. Nice job..

Electric motor turns a hydraulic pump inside the saw base, hydraulic motor turns sprocket

When fabrication is near indistinguishable from castings; perfect execution and combination of form following function. That in it's self is a rare occurrence. Detailing in the early photos interesting enough; the final product is astounding.
