    Lot's of English Wheel info on www.allshops.org

    Do your research before copying,or buying,Junk.

    The Harbor Freight POS is discussed here in a seperate thread.
    The basic layout isn't too bad,but the frame is not stiff enough,
    the material is thinner than advertised,parts are sloppy,wheels wobble,etc.The usual Cheap Imported ****.If you have the means to fix that one,you can make a better one from scratch.

    Hi Gary,

    Why pick just one when there are two with lots of great information? I am a member of both. They both have their strong points.

    I purchased a kit from Ron Covell some years ago, built the frame to his specs and used his tensioner and upper wheel brackets. at that time it was $1200 plus about $175 for the frame material. Has worked very well, definetly worth the money.
