 |
|
I have just finished mounting my SE2 SE3 and tools on a base board. For the purists there is a mistake or two (maybe more) in the set up my pic's ( I think) of my collection of Mamod engines and tools. Can you tell me what they maybe?  Anyway here's the pic's.

Looking very nice, you can offest the pulleys on the lineshaft so the tools can line up better?
I like it very much.

Thanks I like it to  I bougth the 25mm" thick board ( 60cm x 60cm square, thats 1"x2'x2" in old money) from Homebase who were selling them off for just a few pounds. Bit of a bargain there.
Not sure what you mean about "line up better" each pulley belt is perfectly straight ie inline with the lineshaft pulley to the tools pulley.

Les I mean so that sit more inforn of the engine, I can see they line up to drive correctly. Your're preaching to the converted here, I love mamod workshops!

Do you mean the lineshaft closer to the engines or in a more narrow configuration with each tool being closer together side by side by moving the pulleys closer?

Nice Les - well done!
I like the white board actually, not what I would have chosen but it sets off and shows off each item very well indeed.
I've no intention of rising to your challenge of 'spotting the mistakes', (in other words I can't see any!).

Bit of both maybe, overall it works for me!
