After some trial, error, and near death experiences I think I have finally finished my bike. It still needs paint and polish, but the basic design is done. The front wheel pedal design works great. At first I resisted attaching the front fork to the handle bars, but after installing a front coaster brake it became necessary because the handles bars would not stay straight while braking. The coaster brake on the front works great. The recumbent design is quite comfortable.

Ok, Now I see how you got a coaster brake to work on the front hub. I was thinking of a regular bike and trying to figure out how you got a lever to activate a coaster brake!
