I agree
I agree with Ron. Our hobby is expensive enough. Happy to pay.

Antenna
Hi, Just finished making this part for the antenna, just need to drill the oil lubrication hole and its done, will post up some pics of the 'bump stop' part i am making this week, i need to make another of these, if anyone in the uk wants to borrow these parts let me know, the originals i will have to return soon. The spring I think will have to be custom made unless anyone knows of something similar we can use i.e. BSA moterbike kick stand spring??.
kev.

Ron , Kevin, Nigel + others
O.k guys, I am sorry i forgot about this.
I have today stripped the insulator from the brass base. (was not easy) I better have an indication back from interested parties, as to what they might like. The base ring, the insulator cup or both. As an indication, I sent 8.000kg's in a small box to the U.K. Post cost me about 100 pounds. The two bits weigh in on my bathroom scales at 1.8kg. I am not intending to remove the chain assembly from the cup. It can be machined (faced, drilled, and tapped by the owner) who can then make up the chain and screw assembly. Ron, the inside dia. of the cup is about 84mm. I believe Phillip has the ring for the smaller (5/8") base. You might prefer to have his copied? I will obtain a price based on the numbers. Let me know

Brass, bronze, or gunmetal, depends on what the foundry person says.
Is anyone considering making up the insulators?

Lynn, Kevin
Happy to help with the pattern work for new cast parts if that helps? Kevin, I'll have to have a look at the parts next time we catch up. Small order springs in the UK might be worth a try for the springs you need....even bespoke ones aren't that expensive if you get a small batch. Ben
