Atta Way MaxPete !
It was 60 here today and I thought that was "really F@CKIN’ cold".
It was 29F here today at 10 AM when I rode to the diner for breakfast. I would have left earlier but it was much too cold. It was a glorious ride.
Super info ArcticXS - very helpful.

Yeah, polishing is addicting.Careful Pete, no matter how good you make them look you always want to make them look better.

Hi Pete,
like Jim sez, paint the hub BRG.
All over.
Then swing the hub in a lathe to turn bright edges and outer faces on the spoke flanges
and on the crests and crossbars of the between spoke flanges.
Than polish the brake plate "so it shines like an outhouse door on a frosty morning"
