Yes. Wray was going to build a hydraulic adjuster so Randy did not paint the one I made. That didn't happen for some reason and it's never been painted. IRRC, the gibs are 1/2" cutting board without steel backing.

I believe I made the anvils on my little bitty Sears lathe using Tom Lipton's process. Each anvil took a whole day.

Once Randy got his BIG wheel built, Robowheel was set up with the rubber tire and, to my knowledge, isn't used much anymore. It the first fabricated ewheel I ever built. I did a cast iron one based on an Oliver bandsaw frame which was my first machine.
