1) What portion of the chair are you welding? If its in any way structural, I wouldnt do that. Plastics are of two types - one can be reheated and shaped, the other can't. PVC/ABS are of the type that cant. They get brittle and loose their internal molecular bonding.

2) You are going to have a hard time finding swivel stem casters in anything bigger than a 4" wheel. I may have a couple at work that I can try to get to you. I wont know until next week when I go back to work.

Do you still need that 1" aluminum tube?


Thoughts for the BL version....Cg is extremely important. The operator must be able to have full control of the vehicle at all times. I think someone posted that current models have a horrible CG.

I have more thoghts, but my bathroom remodel is calling me right now (yes, thats the wife!).

Happy new year!

Excellent!! I love comments.. I get different prospectives and eyes looking at it!. Fire-a-way .

The first Chair (blue one) I used the plastic welder designed for PVC, Nylon and ABS, I used it on all of the exterior joints throughout the chair. It's been in the RD phase (IE) kids use and abused it for the last few weeks and so for it's holding up quite well. I hear what your saying / warning me against and do appreciate the voice.. Only time will tell for sure and that's kind of why I made a second chair, I wanted to compare a welded chair against a glued chair (I'll be checking for longevity) and presenting the best of the best to the world.. I'll let you know / the team how the RD proceed as time moves on!.. (GREAT THOUGHT!) thank you for making sure I'm thinking things thou..

Actually (OSH) orchard supply hardware carries 6" x 1.5" swivel caster for $15.98 each and I've also found a killer sites that carry some of the more higher end ones along with 8" swivels. I don't know about the 8" one's though!, I'm concerned they will be to tall??.. Again thank you for the comment! And the extremely generous offer!..

I did / was able to find the required tubing at Lowes and Homdepot!.. much like my RD above between the two chairs on the blue chair I'm using ½ alumni rod for axels, as for my second chair I'm going with ½ harden steel rod. I'm thinking that this will holdup better but again only time will tell..

THANK YOU again for the extremely generous offers, thoughts and kind words Sir!, I want to represent the Monster family proud by offering up the best of the best for the cheapest possible..

Please stop by again, I've got some MAG rims coming for the 2nd chair and I'm pippin it out!.. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAaaa.

Have a great one..

Shaun.

P.S.
Best of luck with you restroom remodel!.. I’m almost done with mine!.. we’ll need to compare pictures! LOL…

OOOhhhhh can you forward me a link?? The ones that I found are about $30-40 per wheel?? If you know of a better / cheaper spot please post the link!..

Thanks for stooping by and leaving a comments.. I need all I can get!..

Have a great one..
