Re: sills and wheels

[Charley & Peggy Robinson <ccrobins@ktc.com>]

  Fisher Jones knows how to true wires.  I recently found that my spare
wheel 
"wobbles."  So I asked Fisher about trueing it last time we went out
there to visit.  He asked me if I had a bunch of replacement spokes!  It
seems that many of the spokes will break when adjustment is attempted. 
Frozen threads, y'see.  More cost effective to get a true, used wheel
from him than pay parts and labor to true the old one.  Ticks me off.  I
hate to throw things away.

  I have read about trueing wheels.  It seems that the short spokes
control the "roundness" and the long ones control the "wobble."  I'm
sure there's some interaction too.  I may take a shot at it myself.  I
have nothing to lose, after all.
