Hi Dave,

I have plans for a basic wooden kickwheel. I have built it and used it for
over 10 years. Starting out with the basic design, I made some
modifications and also added a motor drive. The whole rig works very well
for what I do.

Building such a kickwheel in not an easy task. Woodworking skills and tools
are required, and in addition, some welding or brazing is needed.

If you would like the plans, please send my you mailing address.
