Thanks for your kind comments chaps!  :beer:



Today, was sprayday..........




For anyone like me, with disobedient fingers/ hands. I can recommend the cheap pistol grip. Works a treat!  :thumbup:


This was how it looked, at knock off........



Thanks for looking in!

More, gentle progress.

The original clevis, was ok for length, but, not easily adaptable for a graphite piston.
I like to have a spigot, with a flange either side of the piston crown.

So, I chopped off the end of the rod, and re drilled.......




There's a new piston, hiding inside this generous lump. Thanks, Andrew! 




And....... Yer tiz........




Balance time. Piston end........




Big end........




Couldn't make up me mind, which was the best way to lose, only 12gms per disc.

In the end, I went for slots........




Non too bad, I think........





Thanks for looking in!

I wondered when the graphite piston would appear. Very nice it looks too :clap: :clap: .

If memory serves me right the original bore was 1 5/16" (1.3125"). What size are we at now,David?
