Jerry, The clear best answer for me is one made of rope - light weight, 
drop it in the back without risk of damaging fibreglass, no great matter 
if you forget to take it off when departing. Make it yourself from 
thickish rope (about 15mm diameter - just right to fill gaps between big 
washers on tailwheel axel and not to cut into hands when pulling on it), 
if you can spice, if not ask a sailing friend. Two small loops with 
splices to fit on wheel; cross over splice about 8 ins back, about 3 or 
4 ft loop to get hold of and pull on, all splices covered with heat 
shrink. Will send a photo when next visiting plane. David Joyce, GXSDJ
