And the folk band...
Thanks, glad you like them.
Now if I can just get the front hub to the house.
Been a pretty bad week here at the house. 
After 29 years with the company, I'm looking for a job. In need of a systems engineer, senior IT architect, Data Privacy Expert, Data Engineer or similar, DM/PM me. I've got mad skills....

On a not as bad note. My budget is shot, but I think I have what I need, or it is in transit to finish this build.
I will end up welding the tab for the chain wheel. Found some other arms but didn't realize they are 10 spline instead of 8 spline to the spindle.
Hubs arrived. The Exceltooo Competition hubs have the same spoke hole diameter for the spokes I bought. The Model'71 Japan hub is 2mm larger diameter, I could make them work. Leaning towards the round holes on the Exceltoo.

Dude, sorry to hear about the job situation. If you need any parts post it up. I can rummage through my stash and see what might be lurking there. I think I have an 8 spline crank arm, not sure which side.
My company works primarily tier 1 and 2 automotive. I’ll put some feelers outBeen a pretty bad week here at the house.

Thanks Pondo and Captian Awesome!!
Those haro's that I thought were 180s were actually 175s. The fusions are 180mm 10 spline (rare config).
Worst case I weld it and it breaks later on the mountain, then I coast the downhills and push the flats or uphills to get back to the truck. I've trek'd 5 miles cros country with a broken off pedal before.
I have a lead on some used 8 spline 180s from a buddy in town. I gave him the custom bumpers I made for 'In Violet' awhile back, just to see them used again. He said he'd give the arms to me, if he can find them, but I'll find something he'll like in trade.
Funny. I started my software development career moving off a helpdesk at an airbag manufacturing company.
I worked at the site where they made the gas generating explosives and built the software used in the operations buildings and programming measuring instruments in R&D for burn rates and.volume produced.
Thank You ChaOs, much appreciated. Putting the resume out for a couple of jobs this afternoon.
