Re. the small upstand formed on the base casting that Stuart supply, which fits the cast column, would it be any use to you if I gave some measured details of my cast base ?, or would you feel happier anyway to leave the further bit of work until the casting actually materialises? Dave
Highly impressed, Chris, by how this build is "forging" ahead! Really, it's marvellous , and ingenious also.Have measured up the cast base with care. You can see how far CAD familiarity has progressed in this workshop... The datum for measurements along is the back hole drilled in the mounting lug. ( The horrible fractional inches will not please some discerning members..!! ) I have done all dimensions / holes, on this casting accurately according to the Stuart drawing, which I include because my engine is built from old, original, ST of Henley-on-Thames castings. Your more modern dwgs. I hope are the same, but might be best to correlate. Any queries welcome . Dave
The feeling is mutual, Per, after all 18 millimeters is 25.1968/32nds
Hi All, the more accurate you measure to ..AKA the more decimal places you use , the bigger the finished item becomes ??!! . nice model ...Willy
