I sent him a message saying
"Where do the spokes attach ? You seem to have lost the holes lol"

His reply

Thats right, someone in the know will simply build up the missing material by layer welding then polish and drill the spoke holes. Or use these to make copies on a lathe.

Just looked at his other bits he's selling. Must of split a hutch.. Maybe the spoke holes will come up for sale soon.
Don't think that resto job could even be done..
