Has anyone got kicking about...

Post by derek badger »

...a set of paddock stand wheels off a broken one they don't want? 8mm axle/bolt size. I borrowed the ones off my front stand last autumn to put on a piece of garden machinery.

What diameter wheels? I've got various castors in a box, there might be something that suits.

Priorities borked,Badger. :wtf:

I thought I had some stuff like that,but I really need to start throwing stuff out to find anything.

Cheb sounds like a better bet,in the short term at least.

That'd be awesome. Probably 50-60mm.

Inline skate wheels might be about the right size too.
