Metal worker required

Post by al »

I've got one of these stands but the pin I have doesn't fit the TT.

I do, however, have a blank pin so I'm on the look out for someone with a metal working lathe who would be prepared to turn it down to the required diameter.

I bought it 4 years ago but the only tool I had then was a nail file that I nicked from my wife. In all that time there is barely a scratch on the blank and I've gone through about 500 files. I think my wife is getting suspicious!

Thread resurrection . :2up

It just goes to show that someone is reading through the older posts and not just constantly clicking teh "newpost" button however the real irony in this is that the bike was traded in last week :log
