Hi Gary, No I haven't, would you mind posting a link or a pointer to which section please, I am trying to read my way backwards through the old posts in my spare time but I don't have that much spare time!!! LOL I haven't explored the whole site yet.

After a good nights sleep I did a search and found Axel's thread, only read one page so far but it looks a very interesting thread, many thanks for mentioning it. I will study it carefully later.

I have to admit I didn't turn up the wheels myself, I found them on eBay and 'did a deal' with the seller. The large wheel isn't perfect but for what I need it seems to get the job done. The frame is made from 120 x 80 x 5mm wall RHS, the legs are some 100 x 100 x 5mm RHS, I bought as offcuts form a local fabricator for a fiver each for about 6 ft lengths, I have used some more to build an engine crane... I am planning an engine frame attachment for the engine crane to make screwing the V8 back together a bit easier.
