Brookland style mufflers

[Bill Sheehan]

Dis grams from C Guold. Make a wooden former and cut and shut mild steel to git

Chris KD - yes, arrived yesterday, Thank you.  Wrote you a Thank You letter but haven't posted it yet!  To Others - I made several Brooklands silencers over the years, copying what I thought was an original one.  It had flat ends.  I recall with chagrin one made for a friend and he decided to make it look "pretty" and polished the steel.  To assist this he ground down the welds on the joins.  A few months later the muffler disintegrated with a roar whilst he was driving his Ulster!  Turned out he'd been a little too exuberant with his grinding wheel and everything was paper thin.  Something to be careful about.   Cheers,  Bill in Oz
