This the second and last part of a series on how I made a set of machine skates. These turned out OK. The machining could have been better. The welding could have been better. I suppose I broke the cardinal rule that if it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing. But I just wanted a set of skates. They didn't need to be perfect and they didn't need to be pretty.

Great build, if they don’t end up pivoting, you could put a ball bearing under the shaft instead of a thrust washer

That's a good idea. Might be easier.

So, you made some heavy duty race cars :) I think they will work just fine. As you said, mabe the steering handle could be a little problem. But that will be a quick fix.

I'm likely to cut that off before the first time I put them to use.

Hi, will all due respect, I would never weld any axles at the load point ,that is under constant load , if I wanted to retain them I would use a high tensile screw through the axle into the body, or tack the axles in the back

I appreciate the feedback. But, to be honest, for the loads these will see in my shop, these are massively overbuilt to begin with. The largest machine I have is maybe 2,700 pounds. And the largest machine I have my eye on for the shop is maybe 3,500 pounds. I don't see these having any issues. Although someone suggested I make some "tires" for the bearings to keep those surfaces from being damaged. I figure of I break one, I might do that.

As Dire Straits says "Skate Away". I like that tungsten grinding attachment. Just went to E-bay and bought one.

I bought mine from Ali Express. The dedicated ones from CK Worldwide and others are really nice, with built in vacuums, but way to expensive for my hobby budget.
