I just throwing this up to see if someone not all to far from jersey could make an axle like this for me at a reasonable cost?I would send this one to you to use as a template.I dont know if this is something I want to try as my 1st project on a lathe.

SELF INTRODUCTION: Hello everyone. first of all a big thanks to "Dan the Man". Some of you know me from the previous (2) boards and some don't, so here goes. I have been a fabricator/welder for over 40 years now. Damn that's a helluva long time to do anything! Anyways, I have built literaly 100's of street rods, pro streeters, racecars, bikes and trikes over the years. Never made the headlines and never will. I do what I do because it is the love of my life.
I enjoy reading the posts on the forum and try to contribute when I can. I am sure that this will be every bit as good as the CBH forum, as we will have most of the same folks. Good luck and post a lot of pics!! Jim

Thats cool man...but I think youre right though.Someone that knows how to do it, probably is relatively easy.
