3" Burrell motion work - Part 2 Continued from last month the motion parts are starting to come together a certain amount of fettling has been necessary and now we are on the final part the die block. I decided to make this in bronze as I had a piece well suited to the job and by making use of some scrap SS bar I had in the workshop have been able to machine the almost invisible curve on the part. Its also nice the be making use of the rotary table I bought some time ago for an application its well suited to.
Some BSA Bike messing a-bout's Aside from making the traction engine, model railways, ammeter radio, snooker, computing, playing Ukulele in a band and a host of other activities. We have been rust-orating and old bike that belonged to my father. Basically it hadn't run for say 45+ years we bought a few bits sorted a stuck exhaust valve and bingo after some effort it started. The plan it to do my CBT test and A licence so we could take part in next years "Distinguished Gentlemen's Ride". More to follow if this happens but a few picture's of the progress below shows the extent of the restoration. Until Next month, stay safe, make swarf and be the best you can be!
