Thanks, Robbie! The rim came back with plating work i had done. Neither the plater or i can imagine where it came from. He's a solid guy, myself, I've never had an 36 hole K-H pass through my hands. I'm mystified and i don't ingest chemicals, but i do breathe Colorado air.....

I imagine i may never sell the rim.... not much in the way of shop wall art either....

What does the "W" stand for in KHW?

Wheel maybe?
Just a guess.

Mark, you're on to something! I thought as much, but that seemed to logical. Seems this rim's good for some laughter if nothing much else!
