The only time I rebush a flange is when the cloth has come out or is damaged, and then only when it's an unusual one, or I don't have a replacement handy. Otherwise I replace the flange.

Unless, of course, you damage the bushing during repinning, how do you decide to rebush the entire set?

Marc - if you are interested in doing something like this, it is simply an?used golf cart that I got at Goodwill for $2 and just added two pieces of wood. It's nice because it is very light weight, folds up, and is extremely stable - you can go up and down narrow stairs with ease with this thing - and I think it has quite an air of professionalism. ? If you?or anyone wants some better pictures, I'd be happy to send/post them. ? BTW, your words are much too kind - I am very humbled...... ? Terry Farrell ----- Original Message ----- ?

Maybe also an upright action. ? Thanks ? Marc Lanthier ? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
