All makes sense, deapth of dish is 7/16”
Yes John , it is pretty shot but if its right we can use as a pattern 1293912 black on the male side grey primer and perhaps black and some brown female side
Going back to the pole James, our Peter thinks that this may be a cover for the hole.
Cheers Geoff , you are dead right that is a few more bolts and rivets. Kev
Thank you both. very much . The material is on order. Kev
Cheers John , link works fine, Kev
Cheers for the help, Unfortunatly our only coupe drawing is an early GA. no pulley block detail. We spent some time on the wreckage at the weekend and although they are swollen we all agreed they would have been 1.5” total external and 1.25 where cable seats. the bore of the bearing escapes my memory but it is large ie something like 3/8”. Graham is drawing them up.
We are going to give it another week to try and find some and then if no luck we will have some made. Kev
Still having little luck on this one, I found another resident this week who was in the village at the time of the crash. He said it was one aircraft ”Thunderbolt” and pilot killed. I am still trying to get a rough date from someone. Kev
Has anyone got a Brown brothers catalogue from say 1939, it should show if a 1.58” or thereabouts existed at this time. Our volume is later. Kev
Super pic, fingers crossed, Kev
I will ask John, it may be that the ones on the wreckage are swollen due to many years under water?
Cheers, Is there a stockist for pulley wheels? there must be a growing market for them with all the new build work being carried out.
No luck yet, Does anyone know where we could try to obtain them ?
I wonder if it was listed as Calford green, It,s a Hamlet of Kedington , or could it have been an empty aircraft?
Thanks Guys that is very odd. over the years I have spoken to quite a few residents and the story always stated two US fighters, behind Ruses farm which lies on the right hand side of the road between Kedington and Calford green on the way to Sturmer, Same family at the farm for donkeys years too. Very much appreciate your help. Kevin
