Default RE: CMP Hellcat

I’m using a Klett 1 ¼” wheel, I hope you made your forks wide enough to accommodate your wheel!!! Cut a length of 1/8” brass tube as a bearing, make it just as wide as the inner dimension of the forks. The 3/32” tube is the axle itself, this makes the tire spin quite freely and will allow you to glue the axle to the forks later during final assembly.

Disassemble everything as shown and then give them a final going over with sandpaper to eliminate any rough spots.

Position the forks as shown on the main assembly for painting, suspend it on a small wire going through the pivot point.

That’s it, just have to paint the main part white and I’m done! All is drying today so I’ll finish up this tutorial tomorrow…
