on a lighter note...

When bumps or ruts are struck properly with the tricycle front end it will violently spin the steering wheel. Even the strongest men can’t prevent it. Any thumbs wrapped around the wheel will be struck by spoke.
An old farmer here said that his spinner knob was thrown off the wheel one time.

They weren't called thumbbusters for nothing. One application was all it took.

Doesn't need to be a tricycle type set up....on dirt roads...tracks and off road in a cruiser or any 4x4 you hit something and the wheel will spin , snapping your thumbs or just simply hurt like fk....so thumbs outside the wheel....
 
Can't laugh at the truth. So the Like is for that I concur with your statement.

I resisted the first week of October because of freshness. The second week things were lining up to be rather hectic, so I had to break down and bought a large mix bag of my favorite candies.

Alas, that $15.00 bag didn't last 3 days. Second large bag didn't last quite as long as the first. But in all honesty, I did have help, just not sure which of us ate the most.

It's getting really, really hard holding off buying a third and fourth 2 pound bag; knowing there are still 15 days till Halloween.
How's your insulin supply?

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
