I tried searching through the forum, but got burnt out really quick and am now being lazy.  Does anyone have a link to a parts list/instructions to make a Hurley Jr? (the round aluminum one)  I've been using the latest iteration (hex tubing w/funky wrench) but don't really like it as much for a few idiosyncratic reasons.  I just trained some new folks who want to build their own and want to get them instructions.

Hi max, I was making/giving those out for a while. If you don’t have a 3d printer for the flange, I found these from McMaster worked well. You just need to make sure you match the ID of the tubing for a light press fit.https://www.mcmaster.com/products/bushing-bearings/oil-embedded-flanged-sleeve-bearings-7/plain-bearing-type~flanged/plain-bearing-type~flanged

If you do one of those, with a thick grade 8 washer you could ditch the thrust bearing which is the most expensive part.

I think the doodad is a far superior puller with some querks. I don’t link that the hex nut can jam in the tubing. Using an all nylon nut reduces this (in combination with a steel locknut has worked best for me) I also don’t like that the handle can flop around.
Adding a barrel binding screw to Connect the aluminum disk to the ball nut keep the handle in place and fixes this. use a drop of red loctite so it doesn’t loosen/fall off https://www.mcmaster.com/product/98002A312

For the piece that goes inside the tube to keep the bolt from falling out, I just used a piece of pvc pipe.  Drilled and tapped a couple of holes in the side of the tube and secured the pvc with a couple of screws

If anyone is looking for the hurley SR info, it is here:

I don't think Geir has any info up on his site anymore.
