Good point Harv. I don’t see that it could be that hard to smith one up. Having the pattern is the thing.

Got 12mm marine ply. They talked me put of the hoop pine ply but I kind of so hee they hadn't. Was $267 versus $120 the only reason. KBS diamond coat was the clear recommended by Steve.

No clamps. Just the bump stops that stop the wheel going forward

There has been a few floating around ebay - i picked one up for 30$ 12 months ago in very good nick - or try warburton spares - he seams to have plenty of stuff out there but ask for pics first as some of it is just rusty crap

bugger - you cant be happy with that - you could probably find a new one " in the shed "
I was wondering when you were going to cut and buff .................

Never done any of this before Blacky so each new task gets approached with some trepidation.
I will repair the badge with epoxy resin and glass fibre no problem. Just another task I didn’t need. I do have a very nice repro already but needs chroming, and pins so easier to fix this.

Oh bugger....... those boot badges are rather delicate. I know as I broke one of my original ones too
Once you repair it no one will see it.
Put me down for one of those spare wheel clamps too please!

Clay - I’d be interested to hear how you find the diamond finish clear from kbs. I’ve had mixed results - seems to spray much better than it brushes on. Easy to get gas bubbles with the brush...
