Modern Outline announce a new series of one piece MACHINED STEEL CRANKSHAFTS to suit 3/16” axles.
The crankshafts are in one piece and need only a 3/16” axle to complete. Follow the method of fully soldering a 3/16” axle in place in the crankshaft and then removing the obstructing part of the axle to clear the web space for the Connecting Rod.
