To see how it worked, I put a couple wraps of duct tape on the spindle and forced the hub on. It has been like that for 6 months and is most handy.

    I had not until a couple of days ago, when I did stick a finger between the spokes. No damage, but it did get my attention.

    As I do not reach over there unless the lathe is turned off and coasting down, or off and I am turning the spindle by hand, I'll leave it for now.
    So much timber, so little time.
