I think we should pressure Mick into getting these made in a suitable hardy material with the appropiate size centre hole.
What do you think?

Leon, it's not because we need one or whether we will ever use one, it's for the love of ausmini :P

Bah!

They're free!

I'll look at having a couple made up, but we're fine for server.

Maybe I'll have a batch made up and sell them for what I get them + stamp. Maybe?

I made one by the print-n-stick method years and years ago, but I'd actually buy one of those...

While you are at it can you make an Ausmini Camber/Castor gauge?

Bah. You make my life harder than it has to be... :P

Ok, I'll get onto my manufacturing pals. I'll make them as a one-two. You buy one you get the pair. I'll see if I can get 100 sets. No promises though! It could take a little while.

What do you call the manufacturing process by which you cut a shape, etch and paint a piece of plastic anyway? Plastic cut and etchery?

Thankyou for posting that degree wheel image, it came in handy today.
It was simplicity itself to print it out, stick it onto same card and cut a hole in the middle. With that, a bent-wire pointer and a dial indicator, we now have a timed in cam. :wink:

Gee, that looks good....Eh Mick?!
Mine might never see the front of a motor. I'll hang it on the wall and look like an expert. :D

Plastic! I thought we said aluminium for the timing wheel?

That might work too... I didn't notice the request for metal.

I suppose some plastics might crack as you apply some tight to the crank bolt. I've been using paper glued to light ply, so it hasn't been a problem, but I see what you mean.
