Managed to spend a couple of hours making the new sliding pivot, spring guides and spring. Also spent an hour looking for a M10 die before remembering that I threw it away and hadn't yet got around to replacing it  Had to turn the threaded end down and thread M8  |

Why? Doesn't everyone?  Didn't have one the right size. The hardest part is getting an even temper. It's not under great strain so as long as it maintains it's length and doesn't fracture that's good enough for me. |

The hardest part is getting an even temper. Don't you mean 'keeping' an even temper |

Gear lever finished Thank you Andy for the use of your MIG and thank you to Marcus for doing the welding. Was going to do it myself but when you are in someone else's workshop and he offers, it would be churlish to refuse.  |
