Anorak's Corner / Re: Anyone used ABS Slurry to fix side panels etc
« Last post by Orcade-Ian on Today at 12:45:55 PM »
Hi Ash,
I have repaired quite a few panels over the years with home made gloop.  In the early days I used to cut up broken panels into tiny pieces to dissolve in acetone but then I bought ABS welding rods from RS and cut those up instead - much easier!
There's a piece on my site

I left my swing arm bushes in place on the 400 the powder coating them turn brittle - they virtually fell out so I fitted the brass bushes that NJ sells.

I have no idea if powder coating uses higher temperature than Stove Enameling.

No its plain on the other side. If I mount it the other way round it would be slightly out of line and the peg wouldn't be restrained when tightening or undoing its nut.
David Silver have 50 on order and will let me know the ETA on Monday. On the photo from the DS site you can see how the peg would sit correctly on the sprocket. Still got a lots to be getting on with so I can wait.

In that case it should have the clutch switch and brake light switch which are the same except wire colours and only you will see them, if you have problems locating them try the 125 single with drum brake

Probably a silly question,  but is the sprocket the same both sides?

Only reason i can think of it not to work is if the plastic was"de natured" by uv light(cant think of another waybto say that)

Good point that Bryan ...on late 60's early 70s panels the plastic goes really brittle.

Correct Bryan, this is a drum brake USA version. I’m hoping to get a chance to get back to it soon but the MIL is round this morning and although to me that seems like the absolute best time to lose myself in the shed, Mrs C isn’t of the same opinion!

Is this not a drum braked 360 or am i remembering wrong(getting more common!) If so it would be a us import and probably have the switch etc.
Easy to tell, look if there is a hole in the flat part close to where the lever pivots, if it is a drum there will be similar on brake side

Ash,

Floplast do an MEK pot with brush to fit their plastic pipe stuff together. Get it B&Q I used some spare I had recently to repair a plastic door hook.  Keep the top on tight...it evaporates really quickly.
