<div>
<div>In my continuing efforts to remove the last traces of scuttle shake whilst retaining my original flat center wire wheels I have acquired a Kemsway Tire Conditioner that is about 60 years old but was state of the art for tire shaving in its day.
<div>I've spent the week reconditioning it whith new bearings, a new drive motor and various other things.</div>
<div>Yesterday I turned up a pair of adaptors to accept wire wheels.</div>
<div>I shaved my first tire this morning and am delighted with the results.</div>
