I just didn't like the looks of the J&J Tail wheel although is made beautifully. I first cut off the horns and finished off the sides on disc sander, still did like it. I then decided to modify the Ohio Superstar Haigh style to look more like the real thing while using the 1/4" titanium wire from the J&J since the plane is built for 1/4" wire. I found images on Google and started to modify. I used the wire, bearings, and 1/4" collar from the J&J.
