Hi All and Happy New Year
on the grounds of "don't ask, won't get", I have the following request:
I am on the lookout for a set of 4 (or 2 pairs of 2) flanged wheels to construct a miners tub for underground work. This is a project involving clearing a collapse in an old lead mine and tramming the spoil out to bank.
As there is nothing ornamental going on here, said wheels can be as rough as bulls lugs, as long as they will rotate freely. The rails are to be made from scaffolding poles, straight for about 100ft, no turns or points. Gauge 18" approx.
If anyone has any scrap wheels which they think may be suitable, I'd be grateful if they'd get in touch. Happy to pay postage and beer money FWIW, or collect if passing through your area.
cheers
festina lente
