¿ªÔÆÌåÓýKevin, The turning process allows the pressure on the hub of the wheel to
equalize as the axle slides through, and also stops the end of the axle from
gouging the inner face of the hub.

Hi
Kevin
What
do you mean by 'buckled"?? I described my pragmatic approach to mounting
wheels with a drill press in a post in July (5957 on the 014 Group
correspondence log).? If you support your 2nd wheel evenly it should not
buckle.
It
should run true if you are careful and apply gentle even pressure throughout the
process.? After my article on the wheel-press someone said they had
achieved something similar using a GW Models quartering tool and an 014 back to
back gauge.? If you put a wobbly wheelset into this sort of press overnight
(say) the plastic will give a little and the wheelset will run true.?
?
If
that doesn't work contact me via the Rhyd web-site and we can explore other
options.? rs

Hi all
?
OK
I need help.? David(KBscale) sent me a few wheel for my South African
rolling stock, 176 to be exact. I thought it would be simple. Use a drill press
and push the axle through the wheel. BUT NO< NOTHING IS SIMPLE. I get one
wheel on perfect, the 2nd is buckled. My back to back is fine, its just this
issue.
?
So
i looked up the wheel press on the 014 groups page. and saw one that John.C
ownes or built. Are there any 014 wheel presses on the market? would any one be
willing to fabricate me a press?
?
please
any help would be brilliant. as i dont know what im doing wrong AAARRGGH.
?
Kind
