What have you done today with your Austin Seven
(08-05-2020, 10:55 AM)Dave Mann Wrote: If you look at the engine end of an original starting handle Tony all is revealed. The end is counter bored in almost the centre of which is a nice smooth spherical depression where something has been well and truly driven into it by I suspect a press. Replicas have a pin which is a sliding fit in the hole secured by a grub screw, it has been known for the pins to fall out. Mine followed Austin's procedure.
A clever but simple idea. Dave, how deep do you think the shallow bore drilled into the end of the shaft was? Did it stop perhaps 50 tho short of the cross pin, or some other figure?
