The spindles/spokes on my wheel have become very loose at the hub. Hub is closed, forged bronze with seemingly no way to refasten or tighten the spindles. Solutions?
My original wheel was in the same conditions, but I put in a new hydraulic helm station. However, at the time I felt like a good coat of epoxy would probably cure the wheels ills. At the least maybe in the hub. Certainly that process implies a hard to reverse, but simple process. i.e. I don't know if it an accepted practice.
