I mounted lock nuts and did some fine adjustments, then test mounted them once more on the bike som see that everything was allriight, then I undid one nut at a time and applied thread glue and then tightened them back again. That's that!

das böse zerbrechen dieser porösen Plastikscheiben bei den Gelenken,habe ich durch diesen Umbau behoben..
that nastily break of these porous plastic discs with the joints, I have repaired by this rebuilding.
Partial test assembly of the right hand side footpeg after drilling was finished on the original footpeg. Dimension of bolts are M6x80 and M6x40
It may not look like much just yet, but I'm taking this crazy medical device called an autobox and turning it into a steampunk landing pod for my "Mars:1905" photo book. I'll post photos of my progress and would love any advice people have to offer!
This is the most obvious conversion on this bike. When it was built in the late 1960s or early 1970s this bike would have had an internally geared 3-speed Sturmey-Archer hub. That's gone. Instead it's been built up with this recent Shimano five-speed freewheel. This certainly worked (though it won't now--that freewheel is rusted and shot), but it's hardly true to the original design.
The most annoying part about this is that whoever made this switch must have removed the bike's chain guard, since it wouldn't fit with this new setup. That's a sad loss on such a quintessential road bike.
UPDATE: I've since learned that this bike was almost certainly a five-speed from the start...ironic, given the three-speed setup that I've given it. But this freewheel was certainly a replacement, given both the brand of the derailer and the way that one of the gears is completely unusable.
The photo is of the Extra Fiber Omega-3 Power Pretzels before going into the oven.
The following describes what modifications we made to the original soft pretzel recipe, and the purpose of each. It suggests populations of individuals who may benefit from the added ingredients. It also describes the funtion of each new ingredient.
The specific population is anyone who wants to increase his or her fiber, protein and omega-3 intakes. Bread flour was used in place of AP flour because the former is higher in protein. The higher protein content could make the pretzels an attractive snack for athletes. Some wheat flour was also substituted because of its higher fiber content. In addition, a small amount of wheat bran was added because it is an excellent source of fiber. Persons who are irregular can benefit from the increased fiber, as can those who suffer from any number of common bowl disorders.
Flax seeds are added because they are high in Omega-3 fatty acids. Those following heart-healthy diets will appreciate this ingredient. A diet rich in Omega-3 can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by increasing high density lipoproteins (HDL) and decreasing very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). Omega-3 can also be beneficial to brain health by alleviating depression. Adults and seniors who may not always eat a balanced diet will benefit from the extra protein as well as the additional Omega-3.
Wheat flour will increase the fiber and protein content. It will tend to give the pretzel dough a firmer, heavier texture. Fiber will also be increased by the addition of the wheat bran. Only two tablespoons will be used to prevent the baked pretzel from becoming a hard mass. The flax seeds will add Omega-3 fatty acids. With a bit of luck they may also provide some moisture and help to soften the higher fiber ingredients. On the other hand, if the flax only contributes fiber to the final product, it could be too much overall bulk.
To make my Itiwit x500 more cut- and abrasion-resistant, I glued three panels of high-strength Zodiac PVC laminate using Weaver Industries two-part PVC cement.
Right hand side footpeg ready for first road test, but first I have to make the left one aswell. Just another view.

This former Arriva London South Leyland Olmypian ECW now converted to single door layout for school bus use in essex undergoes some modification here note the livery carried is still largely arriva inspired.
