I'm out of material.
I'm sure someone sells it though.
I donated all the material (so far),... for shipping costs alone.

No need.
I'm just glad Mike stepped up to do the machine work.
If you want to chip in,... send some money Mike's direction.
He's the one doing all the work.

I might have some 1/8" scrap to cut and let you try. I will look when I get back to work on Tuesday. If not it should be pretty cheap for a small sample.



You guys are all welcome for this project!
It's really not too bad once the programming, setup and fixture was made. Then it's just load and go. I hope to get some video next run.

Re: WTB- Coy Wheel center cap spacers

I installed the spacers a little while ago. It is incredible that you cant tell they are there unless you know about it, they look like they belong...

Re: WTB- Coy Wheel center cap spacers

Where's everyone getting the longer screws to bolt these center caps on?

Do you remember exacly what length and size you purchased? could you post it up on here? Yes Lowes and Ace hardware should have the stainless flat head screws. If not you can get them real quick online mcmaster carr.

BTW,
your wheels look great with the spacers, thanks for the pictures!

Thanks Mike
I just looked at the receipt and it does not indicate the size but what I did was I took the cap and the spacer with me along with one of the oridignal screws, I looked at how much the original screw came out of the cap I then put the spacer behind it and got a screw that stuck out just as much with both of them together. I will go by ACE on my way home and look at the box where they were and share it with everyone to make it easier sibnce I already know it worked...

stay tuned for later tonight....

I am? Sorry, I'm confused? Steve, you need the cad file or some parts? I would share the cad file. But, I would rather make some more of these. It seems there are a few folks that want/need some. I like to help guys out. It may require changing my subscription again?

Re: WTB- Coy Wheel center cap spacers

Mcbassin,
Sorry for the confusion. Someone else sent me a pm saying they could send the cad file. I don't have access to a waterjet or laser, but was going to try and find someone local that did have.
I would rather have some pre-made and buy them. If you are going to be making some, please put me in line for a set.
