It only takes 3 things to start an engine - fuel, compression and a good spark.
The presence (or otherwise) of fuel is usually fairly apparent if you whip a plug out, and adding some as others have suggested can quickly test your assumptions.
Are you quite sure ignition bits are in good shape? Contact breaker points are usually my first port of call for nearly any problem!
If you are using the handle (bravo) then you should have some idea of whether you have good compression.
After that I'm afraid it's just a question of chasing down detail after detail until you trace your issue.
I'm not sure it's any help in your case but I attach a (non-comprehensive) prompt list for starting issues - it just might give you a flash of inspiration...
