Wheeling machine update

www.autoluxeresto.com.au
Building the wheeling machine went to a short pause due to me being a one man army dealing with other priorities in life. I had to spend the English wheel funding to by other old school equipments which they barely come up for sale but likely everything fell in place so far with lots of hard work and patience.
I'm negotiating with a couple of fabrication shops in Melbourne to find a good deal to cut the frame.
Kevin, a good friend of mine is helping me significantly during the process of wheeling machine project and organising interstate delivery of a panbrake folder.

Hi Trev, you're welcome. Currently have a shortage of 20mm here in Australia. I am not too sure I should wait or go ahead with 16mm instead.

@@autoluxeresto4599 I don’t know how you’ve calculated the thickness needed for your project. I haven’t even started designing mine yet but my approach was to use much thinner steel but to have very deep walls with tubes running through the frame to stop the walls from bowing inwards as the pressure between the wheels increases, because of my space restrictions I will also make it much smaller than yours. I appreciate that you’ll need thicker steel with a larger frame with shallower walls. Cheers Trev 👍

I eventually got lower arm thinner to be able to roll very fine deep pieces too and I'm running tubing as well for spacer. (It meant to be spacer brushing at the first stage)
