Nice job sir.
Shouldn't the metal tab under the nut be bent onto a couple of the flat surfaces as well though?
Agreed, that's the point of the safety washer in the first place, to supposedly stop the nut from undoing!
Good idea with the wire though!

Well my tabs don't line up. The one you are looking at lands on a corner of the nut. The other tab lands flush on the nut body itself, and is secure fully and which you can't see in the photo. The nut still can't get by the tab you are looking at...I tried it. And it certainly ain't moving from the other tab. Throw a bit of thread lock and my wire into the bargain and its a cert that this nut is going nowhere. Is your tabs flush on both flat parts of the nut??
