Hus Ski / Diablo Workshop August 14, 2010
Posted: Tue Jun 08, 2010 8:34 pm
Hi all,
I've received enough interest to commit to a Get Together this August. We will tag the event a "Workshop" and all will be welcome. The date will be August 14th which is a Saturday and will take place at my shop in Sobieski, Wisconsin. I'm suspecting the event till take place from 9am till later that afternoon but will confirm when closer to the date.
There will be room for you to bring your Hus Skis and Diablos. I'm not expecting snow cover, but this is Wisconsin so you never know. With that said, I won't be planning a trail ride!
What does seem of interest is to put together some exhibits to generate discussion, learning and knowledge. Some thoughts and offers to date would be:
- A motor display to show the motor internals, how to disassemble and assemble, how to pressure test. I could show this process for the Hirths, but would need someone to offer up the JLO process.
- A Diablo Gearbox display to show how they are constructed and how to disassemble and assemble.
- A Hus Ski Track Building display to show how you can make your own Hus Ski tracks. I'll be asking Frank P for this display.
- A carb display to show carb components, how to pop-off test the seat and how to assemble. I know the HR, but would need someone to show the HL.
- A Diablo Bogie Wheel display to show how they are constructed, how to get tires replaced and how to refurbish.
Those are just suggestions, so if there is something else of interest, let us know.
The event will be held rain or shine. Should the weather not cooperate, we can move inside the shop and should have plenty of room. Please know that I have no water available on site, so we will get a porta-pottie brought in. There is room to park a camper or tent if some would like to stay over. We will offer a cookout for the group and everyone can bring their favorite beverage and a dish or desert to share. RSVP's will be necessary. You can contact Bruce at bruce@gogodiablo.com.
Looking forward to a great turnout and lots of fun.
