Default Mushroom Dimesions

Hi does anybody know the dimensions for the mushrooms?
I have a few days where the boss is away and would like to get them done?

Many Thanks

Thank you
that is spot on.

one thing, on the ridge around the top part that sits on the top of the hub why has it got 3 notches taken out?

Thanks Again

the 3 notches are for a "c" spanner to turn the mushy to where you want it .....a bit like the spanner from years gone by to dismantle a bicycles crankshaft you dont really need em....and you dont need the very shallow taper just make as a turret the critical dims are the taper which is 3 degrees and the outer dia for the sierra hub carrier which is 45.5mm get them two right and you will be ok
I have made several styles before just check some of my other posts
this is how I make them now

just a quick question what are people making them out of?

and how did you get the taper? was it using the hand reamer used for the lower ball joints?
