Made the motion frame today, its fabricated from mild steal 3/16*5/16 section. This is how it will be frabricated the screws are there just to keep things in place whilst it silver soldered together. First job cut to length +2mm for cleaning up, square one end up then bring the other end to size. To drill the holes for the screws, I used my parrallel stop to get things square and to keep holes in the corect position to each other. Drill the short length for threading 8BA. Drill the long length clearance on 8BA I didn't deburr the holes so that the parts would screw up and leave a small gap for the solder to penitrate. Silver solder and clean up, that it job done. And this is where it will fit between the loco frame Have fun Stew |
