While i was in the shed today i thought i may as well get this finished.
Just need to put a slight bend in the neck, so its held in the vice, needed more leverage so i slipped the end of a spanner over the neck and gently bent it forward, suppose i should have heated the brass first but it bent ok without snapping.

Interesting TB. We'll nick that for the tech pages of the main site if you don't mind.
Every little project like that can teach someone something, even if it's just good workshop practices.
