Thanks for the offer to try to machine some adapters for me, and thanks for the helpful DXF files. I am currently out of the country, but I return home this weekend. I will get back to both of you after I have had a chance to review everything.

Bob, Thanks for the two DXF files, it makes the adapter issue a lot clearer. Is the DXF file for the ERA Hub the adapter that would work with Dunlop wire wheels? If so, those are the adapters I need to have made. Please clarify what the adapter specifications and drawing in that ERA Hub file mean.
Thanks, Rich

Any proper machinist should understand the base metal specifications. For the threads, I typically give a sample for the machinist to duplicate.
