Made my BSA front brake work as it was designed to do, pulled up some interesting Stellite TIG beads, and actually made some room in the workshop, courtesy of a departing machine, that went back to its keeper. Who is a nice bloke, but one of the worlds great ditherers....

Might be worth filling them with water before concreting them in, things like this have a habit of floating to the top.

Thank God, a specially trained specialist will do the concrete work. The frame pinches the boxes (welded brackets). And it will be nailed to the floor.

BSA B.33 rocker spacers in CA 104 aluminium bronze.
Replaces the spring loaded horror, and greatly reduces rocker gear friction.
Likely to rattle a bit, but the valves will be in with a very good chance of obeying the messages from the Goldie scrambles cams....

The Thackeray washers were a simple solution to cope with expansion. Definitely spacers are the way to go. I had some machined up for my Norton.

When they are machined up, they always wind up being too thick.
One of these days, I'll learn not to give the sods the benefit of any doubt.
That being said, the Thackeray washers were really just an expedient to get the things shovelled together quicker on the line.
Not so bad, but not ideal other than for winning the production war...

I like them! Much heavier-duty than the flimsy ones we find at the big-box stores. Strong enough for a new 'iron curtain' perhaps?

Good idea. When we installed drain boxes for a driveway some years ago in Utah, we temporarily inserted some concrete blocks inside them to weigh them down before pouring concrete.

Just need to bolt the handrails on then wait for the wheels and casters to arrive and that will be this one done.

A quick and dirty aluminium "gasket", time to resemble everything and start her up.

A small poker for the stove. 15mm brass for the handle, 8mm brass for the pokey bit. That's a 6" rule beside it.

Make such gates with more privacy by doing hit and miss slatting from both sides using stainless steel nails or countersunk screws . The gate will still allow strong winds to pass through it as well

Well this is made from Sturgamite wood painted with AI intelligent nano creosote and the screws are depleted uranium.
