Uncle Jesse,

I think what DarrinG has suggested would work great! I am attaching a picture of one very similiar to what he is suggesting and it looks to me like the front forks of a 20" bike would work great. Just thought I would add this plus a picture and from that, I feel you will do the rest. I am a little disappointed that I did not see any Duck Tape in your picture of what you came up with! I just knew there would be Duck Tape somewhere! : )
