The Oneway platform needs two mods to make it useful:
1) at least on the older ones, there is a bump up in the platform over the attachment weld. You need to take a mill smooth file and flatten the platform.
2) mount the platform on the coarse wheel side and kick it up to ~45*. Gently snug (but do not tighten) the locking lever and then use the grinder to cut a notch in the underside of the platform. Once the notch reaches the top of the platform, stop. Now you can actually use the platform in the future without that nasty gap between the platform and the wheel.
I first saw the Robo Rests ~3 years ago at Totally Turning and really liked their design. I was already invested in the Oneway system at that time, though, and never realized (until this auction) that there was a version of the RoboRest for the Wolverine mount. I will be keeping that in mind when I am setting up the shop for the next niece.
