Like the idea of the square sections as this should get rid of one of the worst problems of the pin wearing & the hole enlarging, the other problem is the wheel & axle which wobble like hell, I suppose a square axle & hole in the wheel wouldn’t work too well.

If your wheels turn out to be good then I would be very interested in a set.
How do they sit when they are in the upright position?
Not a complete idiot - some parts are missing.

I don't tend to put them in the upright position I store them upfront in a builders bucket which leaves the bracket clear for the transducer.But I will have a look tomorrow Chris.
