    If there is a distributor there must be a coil and a coil wire to the distributor.

    That´s a possibility Craig and yes the Crocker has a battery.

    Maybe the wire 7 lead to the coil under the tank and out of view?
    Does the bike have a battery?

    Canute reacted to Old Collingwood in Battle of Waterloo Attack on La Haye Sainte Farm by Old Collingwood - 1/56 (28mm)   
    Morning all,  so after putting my  KGL 3rd Hussar  away,  I have started  on my  Dutch  27th  Jager,  I have  used  one of my  French  line  infantry  as  they  share very  similar  uniforms,  so far  I have  cut away  his lower  left side  at the  back  of his  coat  where  his  sword and  bayonet  was, this  has been replaced  with  a  British  bread bag  and water bottle, that  has been  cut away from one of my  British figures  then  trimmed to fit  and glued in place, I have  also  filed  away the  Shako  plate as I will  attempt to  paint in  the Dutch  design  that's  a  horn  -  that's  all  I have  done  to him  so far  hence  why no pics  Yet.
     
    A bit of history  of  why I am  including a  single  Jager  figure  in my dio  -   at Waterloo  the  27th   Jager  skirmishers  where  famed out  in front of the  ridge  running  from the  road  all the  way  across, when the  French  columns  advanced  and  got neat  the bulk of the  Dutch Jagers  fell back, however  I am  placing  my  single  figure  on the road  with  the  95th rifles  firing  towards the  French.

    Hey a postwar civilianized version is just as historically accurate.... {chuckle} (and this one looks so accurate I would like to go ride one myself)

    they look fantastic as the rest of the bike. The treatment of the various materials is exceptionally well done.
    You should start one of the other bikes and post it here.
    Congrats,

    Hi Rafael9,
     
    After a little googling:
     

    And here is a link to this motor: https://www.batteryspace.com/dc-motor-heavy-duty-90v-dc-motor-40w-2000rpm.aspx
     
    If your data is correct it should be a match. Also the 2000 rpm is what is reported for the Byrnes sander with variable speed control.
    I hope this helps.
     
    best regards,
       Kris

    Impressive work Egilman, I hope your CAD development will be put to reality, when ready. Like you, I learned pen and paper construction in my early days as an engineer, but I never converted to CAD other than producing early day 3D-animations.
    Your re-engineering is fascinating to follow, I only recently learned, that Model Factory Hiro designs their kits only from pictures very often as well.

    Cheers Rob

    Ok, another update....
     
    Slowly getting back to where I was...
     
    Truss Rods and diagonal braces....
     

    Brakes...

    I had to redesign the cam rod support arm....

    That cross piece with the bolts and locknuts was missing before, it is the stop to prevent the brake arms from going overcenter and locking the brakes in the off position... (a very important feature)
     
    And mounted to the Differential carrier...

    And as part of the rear suspension....

    I guess I can mount the rear wheels now and get her to a rolling chassis state...
     
    Onwards!!!

    Another parts of the decoration added.
    Just one notice: I wanted to start to make the decoration according to the Mc Cay´s book - but I couldn´t,  check it with the engrawing. So I started to make parts based by Payne.
    I noticed it in several cases  the pictures in the book are sometimes a mix of both authors .

    I made another part of the decoration. And as I said it goes very slowly... but if I count correctly, there are more than 500 pieces of gilded parts on the ship already... and this is just one quarter....
