Jami, Zadig, Frazer. Thanks Fellas! :thumbup: I decided, it was time to drill n tap the flywheels, for m3 grubscrews........ Trying the silver steel shaft, afterwards, it stuck, solid. The only way to part, the parts, was to drill through........ Then drill 8mm dia, and sleeve back, with mild steel insert. This is not the first time, this has happened to me. I hope it is the last. I can't get over, how tightly the alloy gripped the silver steel. Despite the fact, they were first fitted, some 3 weeks ago. And, have been taken apart/ assembled, more times than a Lego set! Is there some unwritten rule. "No alloy sleeve, onto silver steel shafts"? :scratch: From a rather miffed, David D |

Only happens David if you paint a part up real pretty! Never, ever, ever, ever paint until done, or it angers.......... the GREMLINS :wack: :zap: :poke: :whip: |

I agree with Steve. It's the same with anything electronic, it will work fine out of the box all day but as soon as it's back together it will fail. :zap: |

Steve, Jon. So true, so blummin' true! :palm: Frankly, I blame Mr, Wilson's, Newcastle gremlins. They must be hiding inside the castings. :scratch: The last time it happened, was with this pair........ --- Quote from: RobWilson on April 04, 2015, 04:10:15 AM ---Looking great as always David , Its going to be a fine looking engine when done . :clap: :clap: Rob --- End quote --- I was just typing about you, Rob!
