[QUOTE="CarlHungness, post: 169958, member: 2517"] The best metal bracket fabricator I've ever known used to make the 'part' three times, saying the last two were improvements on the first. I had no idea he was doing this for about 40 years as I marveled at his work. The Hills stand (and didn't I just read a post of FB whereby the man who really invented the stand let us know the history of it?) is just fine and I am not mechanical enough to invented it. I'm just replacing the round tubes with streamline, like the front forks, and a few other minor mods. I'm worried about the feet. And now that I've seen Peter Holmes's brake pedal use I'm wondering how to keep it parallel to the ground as he has...fine idea! [/QUOTE]
