Not exactly true. Tom inquired about a wing wheel, wing cuffs and a tow bar. I explained that tow bars were out of stock and wing wheels and wing cuffs are custom fabricated. Because of my involvement in another project, I informed him that delivery times were questionable, if at all possible. I don't recall receiving a check at all.

As far as "scrubbing" being "inevitable," also not true. Over 300 of my wing wheels are out there, and if properly positioned and aligned with the direction of travel, they track well.

But you can't convince Tom, since he is always right.

Come on, Mark. I sent you the check - I've got a copy of it - along with a purchase order, which I also have a copy of. You said you could make more money on another project. I said, "Ok, then shred the check and forget it, no hard feelings."

Scrubbing is what happens when you turn a tire on a radius. I have seen it happen with my Cobra wing wheel. If the wing is long enough and the turning radius tight enough, you get to the limit where the wing wheel is at the exact center of the turn and is being turned around a point. This scrubbing pushes the wing wheel sideways and is very obvious with the Cobra wing wheel. It's not me that's right, it's physics that's right.
