Thanks again guys.

Bought the lead hammer and spinner tool from Bob.

Used an aircraft supply mob for the 0.032" Malin branded SS wire and had the heads up about some form of plastic sleeve protector but the model aircraft fuel hose is another good idea.

Hadn't thought about anti sieze lube. Is that just for the knock off thread or does a dab go on the spinner rear face / rim inter-face as the two parts make contact when tightened?

I guess the other question is when do you stop belting the spinner with the lead hammer, i.e. how do you gauge spinner tighteness?

All newbie 101 questions I guess but I'd rather ask than suffer a wheel dismount - DoH!!
