" Elated at first, then I realized it's a 20" fork, "balls said the Queen."
"The King laughed, not because he had to; because he had two."

One of my dad's favorite quips during a project. Thanks for the smile this morning, @Wayne .

You are welcome. I know the whole quote as, "Balls" said the queen, " if I had two I'd be king"

That's right! I forgot the last part of the first phrase.

Well the fork saga continues.... I received the "24 inch" fork today in the mail. Not for a 24" but for a 26" tire. "Balls..." oh already said that. So I sent the seller a message.

I could use the Murray fork, or a 20" tire on the 26" Schwinn fork. Take a chance on another on line purchase....

Been a week, I better check in, Ebay seller refunded my money for the fork. So I bought another, waiting for it to show up. Some old pictures from Trexlertown PA:

That must be some old Trexler photos with Krate Mayhem in there. I hope he's doing well. Seems like I remember someone posting on FB recently that he was having issues again. Keep Dave in our prayers.

Got the 24" fork yesterday. Will need to add some threads. Don't have my 1x24 die at home. I hope it is in my tool box at work. Then paint.

Haven't needed one in a while, but that is one tool I wish I had. A one inch fork die

 

[OddJob]

That fork threading tool is to 'die for'.

 

[Wayne]

Fork is in paint. MRO High Solids black. The frame was painted with black Imron, no longer at my disposal. I hope they match.....

I got a cheapie off of Ebay that works well for my builds. A good quality one could be spendy though.
