Yes to the e-wheel. Another beer budget project Wink

You can see in the second pic I moved the adjustment to the top wheel to allow a cantilever mount of the bottom wheel for better access when making fenders and tanks and smaller curvy things.

I have gotten great support with my technical questions posted in 'rubber side down.' And I know I'll have lots more questions. I've also benefited from the marketplace section. Posting the progress is small way to give back to the site and I enjoy the discussion, input and feedback. And thanks to smokin_blue for introducing me to the site.
