+1 for non heat-pressing. I did some like that yesterday and it came out so much better. Not bearingboys wheels, but nylon wheels/hubs still.

That was the 3/8" UNF brass nut connector things from eBay (I'd bored them out to 10mm because I needed that) shoved into a 14mm bore. The nuts are about 15mm or so.
the steel ones tend to be about 15mm edge to edge and 13 on the flat ive even found some with a tapered
What's the grip on the nut like Harry? better than heat pressing? It certainly looks neater from the pictures.
Probably not noticeably stronger/weaker. Just much easier to get straight which is very much a good thing.
ive gotta manage it with some 1/2 unf nuts on some bearingboy wheels for the new Night fury
What drills have a 1/2" UNF output. I ask as I found a box of 1/2" UNF taps today and less messing about with nuts and hubs would be a cool thing.
there makita 2 speed drills, i was gonna use them for the dog style bot but after the damage caused to NF i realised it would never survive so their going into the new hdpe NF2 so 15mph and twice the nm torque that the old bot had
thanks for the links and the info folks saved me a tone of head scratching indecently will those brass inserts fit on these motors ?

little of topic i know but figured i might aswell ask
Yes they will as the Gimsons have the same 3/8 unf thread output shaft as a normal drill motor
Rory, not a bad find
The shore value is a little high. The preferred orange or blue ones from banebots are either 40 or 50 shore
Maybe their nylon wheels and bike tread http://www.bilcastors.co.uk/solid-wh...s-c-54_56.html
