LOL, Imthegrt. 2 funny.
What a great thing to share with kids. Wrenching. Really opens the mind to physics, math and a million possibilities. I'm sure or know from experience kids in to wrenching have a better time then teenagers sitting around asking each other "Whata you guys wanna do?" LOL, almost always ended in trouble fer me when I was a kid.
But again, welcome to the funny pages. I really enjoyed your thought about using old (or new) baseball glove stitching for grips. That would look cool!
Ride safe!
