Next step would be to find out how to let it rotate synchronized with your front wheel

LMAO....Funny you should mention that, my GF said I should make it a spinner like some wheels out there today..... In a word....NO....
It's a Wide Glide, not a lo-rider

Looks nice. You could mass produce those and sell them like rsd

I agree that ac cover is bad ***. And to think RSD gets 350 plus.

If you take your time with a drill and a dremel tool, it is pretty easy. A bench grinder and a drill setup is very helpful to get it perfectly round.

A couple clamps and a thick hard steel straight edge would be a good idea for cutting the lines with the dremel.

You could use a jig saw instead of the dremel, whatever you are comfortable with, but I would still use the straight edge.

Polishing is the most time consuming part.
