Dave you really need to update your webpage…:p
Mate I would love to see your workshop one day..
Kuvi=Ju88 Dive bomb site IIRC and the Mg15 tool set.Magic.

Good to see your flat out still on the Spit.Time is hard to find sometimes.

Long way to come and see a small shed mate, but your welcome 🙂

Always find time for Spitfire parts.

Dave

A few projects on the workbench,
A replica Kuvi, but missing some information on the “X” frame that mounts on the front of the assembly.

Loading tools for the MG-15 magazine drum.

Plus the usual parts for the Spitfire build.
A replica TR9 radio set.

Hello Stuart,
Considering the skills base of quite a few members at this forum, some humility when posting photos home made parts is not a bad thing in my book, but thank you for the kind words. The project is moving forward though not quite at the same pace due to other commitments at the moment, and certainly not quite as far advanced as your own build.
Regards,
Dave

Not the most authentic reproductions, but the best i could do from the rather poor photo i have of the blind flying panel mounts. The only dimensions i can be sure of on these, are the hole centers where the top and bottom mounts locate on the main instrument panel.

So if any of you chaps can offer any other information regarding dimensions, i’d be happy to hear from you.
Cheers,
Dave

(Hint-Dave, an update on your spitfire simulator should finish us all off!!)

Not sure my own humble project qualifies for this thread Dave, but thanks for the thought sir.

Due to a few problems which have slowed down things over the last few months, I managed to make a few small items to keep the project moving forward.
So a small update for those interested. The Nose up/Down indicator for the instrument panel is a hard to find item, after receiving some help with information on that i started making one.

The other items are parts for the Tank jettison release.

Hello Peter,
they guys working on the Y2K project have been outstanding with their help and information regarding my own humble project, so it might be worth while if your friend e mailed them.
Bruce has already mentioned Spitfire Restorations. I would just add that Spitfire Resotrations will either provide hard copies of the drawings, or they will e mail them. The latter usually being the same day ( depending on time zones). I have no connection with the company, just a satisfied customer.

Harald,
if the generosity regarding design tollerance and fit in what are classed as high performace engines, was that great then i can only agree and happy to stand corrected sir.

Interesting story,
But I think that is all it is. While I have no doubts that some form of sabotage went on within the forced labour workshops, I doubt that machining mating parts to the drawing tolerances either upper limits or lower limits, would affect the performance to that extent. The component tolerance limits would have been worked out at the design stage.

Just my thoughts.
