Oh so that's how you do that! Learning a lot.  :bow:
Rob.Wilson:
Time for a tea break  :coffee: so I may as well do a quick post .

First job this morning was to skim the flange bolt faces  to get rid of the distortion caused by the welding .

 

That done the holes were then drilled and tapped , if I had drilled and tapped these before welding the studs would not have been perpendicular to the flange face .

 

M12 SS studs.

 

 With that done they were welded to the wind belt .




Suppose I better finish the covers now , Deciding weather or not to fit glass viewing windows , may splash out  even though it would take me over my 10 quid budget for this build  :lol: :lol:

Rob.Wilson:
Well thats the covers done for now  :dremel:  , filed a slot on the RH side so they can be swung clear .
