Winterfield's first project (400/4)
mattsz:
Ahh... never heard them called by that name before...

I have a couple of sash clamps that I inherited from my father. I think he got them from his.
He always told me that they were for repairing sash windows.

They are basically a long flat G clamp used for assembling any large wooden assembly till the glue goe off, gets scary when you star adding the extensions to make them even longer!!
Winterfield:
So it's been a long time since I last posted, and I have been busy during that time. Lots has happened, so I'll update with the progress so far.
With the frame painted, front shocks rebuilt, wheels rebuilt, and various bits repainted (and replaced), it's rolling chassis time!
And after that, I used the sleeping bike trick again to get the engine back in the frame. Unfortunately, not without some small scuffs on the frame - but they won't be seen.
Because I have two engines, I have put the running (but dirty) one back in at this stage. The plan is to rebuild the other engine entirely, repaint etc. then put it in this bike. But I wanted to proceed with the rebuild with the running engine... mostly due to impatience, but also in case I don't manage to rebuild an engine by myself.
Winterfield:
Painted the battery box and installed it, then installed some of the electrics.
During the lockdown, not much else to do but polish my lever, paying particular attention to the knob (sorry...).
