gerhardsnorbaard Posted October 13, 2015 Share Ghetto bike stand made from bamboo stakes i had lying around. Not on the level of the "real" mechanic, but worked well last night to tinker with my gears, brakes etc. Ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanigit Posted January 31, 2016 Share My home made effort ........ borrowed ideas from Youtube and the Hub: Double thick plywood base plus castors (2 with brakes) was left by landlord ......I can swivel stand easily.Other materials: 40mm galvanised flange - 25mm galv pipe (I tried 20mm initially- too much flex). 1 x t- piece (in case I want to lower bike to work on headtube) - elbow, 25/15 reducer, 15mm pipe (easier to find clamps).I x 32/15mm plastic irrigation clamp, reversed bolts and replaced nuts with wing nuts and flat washers. ~ Clamp is work in progress ........ I have seen pics of a hinged version of this which would be ideal. This one is a little hard to operate on your own 1x40mm galv flange ...... fork me these are like rocking horse poo............why 40mm when the pipe is 25mm you ask? This was smallest in stock (hence 40/25mm reducing bush) and I only found it at the last place I went to ....... if you live in Helderberg I will tell you where ...............for a small fee Finished product in action ....... as visible the clamp twists on the thread when using the seatpost.........I will be drilling horizontal and vertical location holes through clamp thread and 15mm pipe inside to insert locking pins for whichever desired position I am using the clamp Cost of materials to date (excl plywood base plus castors which was already provided) approx.

MrJacques Posted May 5, 2017 Share Not mine, but I think it's worth sharing: Headset press probably made with 3d printed parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
