[HG] Building Progress

[Seth]

Here's about as far as I've gotten. Not much progress since lately since I'm 
strapped for time..  I made the wheel from Cherry a few months back and its 
been in the heat/humidity and freezing cold and its not changed it's shape at 
all.. I made the shaft using my metal lathe and made a threaded piece that 
screws into the wood of the wheel that threads on the shaft...   Is cherry a 
good wood to make a wheel out of or do I need to put a band on it???  Cheers, 
Seth Hamon
