Ok, my landing gear wheels are getting lathed out internally using screws as axles. These wheels are gettin expensive to replace...seems I need a dozen in my box. The standard on profiles is regular screws to hold on wheels so whats the secret.

Barely 6 landings and the wheels are already getting whobbly...

I know not a big deal.... :roll:
I was thinking about putting heat shrink tubing on the screw to reduce the axle drilling.

Get a piece of aluminum or brass tubing that will just slide over the screw, and drill the wheel hub where it will just fit over the tubing. Cheap, fast, and easy!

Thanks! I think they are about drilled out right now to accept the tubing.
