[cheesy]

Some parts accumulation happened. Scored a clutch on amazon for $21 AAANNNDD a friend of one of the guys that works for me gave me a brand new 5" wheel with the rear hub and bearings. It has 5/8" ID bearings and I happen to have about 8' of 5/8" cold rolled round stock in my stash, so free rear axle.

Also ended up with about a thousand pieces of 1.5" x 1.5" x .125" steel plate with a .5" hole at work this week. Stuff that was leftover from a different project I wasn't involved in but I ended up with the extra hardware and was told to do anything I wanted with it.

Anywho, I figure I can pop the .5" hole to 16mm in four pieces and weld those to the swing arm for the axle to slide through. I plan on having the axle position fixed and use a tensioner to take up chain slack. It works in my minds' eye, anyway.
