Log story short, unless it's a tapered or oversized (1.25") steerer, you can make it fit. The hardest possibility would be if the steerer is too short, but you could theoretically lengthen it by welding in a new steerer... plenty of threads on RRB about that process. Next biggest hurdle would be 1" threadless, but we can beat that too, if we have to...either by threading the steerer and reaming the ID of the steerer to 7/8", or by frankensteining a 1" threadless set-up.... easiest way would be to turn down a 1.125"-to-1" reducer to fit the Worksman headtube and then installing a standard 1" threadless.... which would suck, but it's possible. If it's 1" threaded or 1.125" threadless, it's gonna be easy as can be... Definitely worth investigating if the fork is in decent shape and looks like what you're going for. Personally, i have a strong rigid bias, but i think suspension forks make sense on geared bikes. Too much bounce on a singlespeed, though, in my opinion....

). If I recall that measurement on the headset cup was 33.5mm- right in between the normal BMX/balloon tire threaded sizing at 32.8 and the 1 1/8" sizing at 34mm. Just note that some forks have the bearing cone machined onto the steerer now-a-days, and FSA headsets won't work. They have a proprietary 36* cone to allow for their bigger bearings.
