Had one like that, a border collie , Spot T. Dog. only went to the vet 3 time in his life. once for his bits, once to put his innards back in from a roo attack.
on the 3rd occasion I took him in for a check up , vet said he was blind ,deaf, but his heart, kidneys were all good and he was in good health for 15. Poor bugger was terrified the whole visit. vet charged $80 . the next day the dog ran off and was never seen again!

Recently on one of the threads it mentioned that the Club 88 yachts where built from steel exhaust tube...If so what size and thickness?
When visiting an exhaust place the other day following my tube bending questions I asked what the "standard exhaust" tube was and the comment was that there were so many variations these days.

2 1/8 od in the old measure so that 50mm x 4mm aluminium can be used for the axles, thickness 1.6mm

Need to be choosy that the rear cross member piece to has a clean internal seam to slide the axle in.

FWIW the Seagull had an internal seam, so a bigger size was used and the tubes going inside were wrapped with insulation tape to take up the difference. The tape is 50mm wide, known here as silage tape, sold at farm supply stores. That way you can make damned near anything a good fit!

or dip your axle in a 2 part polyeurathane mix . to give a cushioned fit
