FUCK. Bought a 22mm bottom bracket today, thinking that the cranks I have which don't fit in my 19mm bb would fit in it. Nooooo, they just have to be some fucked up old standard which doesn't fit in either. 36spline, too :S

So now I have a 22mm bb, 22mm primo spindle, 19mm bb, 19mm 48spline stolen spindle and 2 whole cranksets which don't fit either.

Anyone want to buy any of this shit/sell me shit that'll fit?

finished building grind box except for coping..

does anyone know where's the best place to get some? i'm assuming they'd have it at bunnings, so i'll have to use a hacksaw to cut them into 2.4m lengths at home.
also, does anyone know the best way to attach coping? on my previous box a friend supplied the coping, which already had holes in it to be screwed down.

angle iron or 50mm pipe would be best for coping.
tip shop/scrap yard if your cheap, hardware stores normally have that shit too but it costs a bit.
and if the ciouncil is building a fence nearby, pinch some pipe.
use a grinder if you can, so much easier!
could use liquid nails or countersunk srews.
