Update 24 Jan 2024
I have added a Jig, that will help to make sure the all spikes are sticking out the exact distance. I my case that is 4mm. The maximum that is allowed according to the regulations of the race.
Thread needs to be cut in the 2 holes, so 2 M4 screws can be fitted for the adjustment.
I have printed it in ABS with a 0.6 nozzle
Original text.
This wheel with spikes I created for the annual ice race in Eindhoven in the Netherlands.
It uses a M-chassis rim, that have to be glued to the "tire"
The nails that have be used have a diameter of 2 mm and a length of 13 mm. 24 pieces per wheel
The holes for the nails are tight. With a hot soldering tool, the nails can be pushed (melted) into position.
