Hi
I have being building a simplex too over the last few years. I now put it on hold while I build a 4 inch scale traction engine instead.
Just one thing to point out is an 'error' on the drawings. The front frame cross member not the front beam but the large square piece that is over the pump. This needs an 1.25 ish hole putting in. This is to get to one of the oillers. Can;t add any more at the moment as I have not worked on it for 18 months and the fine details fade. ( Also I just had 2 glassses of whiskey) :beer:

Thanks for looking in Mike. I did bore a large hole in that cross member. Luckily I had seen pictures on the net of frames that had the hole. As I didn't have any reference as to how large to bore it, I made it about 2 in. Figured I would need to get to the eccentric strap too, so made it big.

If you think of anything else by all means please let me know. I need all the help I can get. :zap: :zap: :lol: :lol:
