MWaz Get off your duff challenge

[Schraddel]

Hi Mark,

let me show some of the solutions i made over the time:


SP 0-6-0 with really tight fit under the boilershell. Grandt Line coupling. The front end has got a oblong hole, so the angle of the gearbox can be adjusted.
Sprung function of middle pair of drivers still present.





Drill and tap.


Brass stripe (recycled etching frame)


Bend to shape. Here too the sprung function still present.





Radical different-minded solution.





Shaft guide. Some pieces of styrene front and aft adjust the gear box within a fraction of an millimeter. This is only possible when the gearbox is straight upright.





Articulated lever with possibilties for adjustment. The articulation still enables sprung action.





Still an articulated torque lever. Recycled etching frame too.





Another torque lever. Here the articulation point is the rear fixing point of the lever. The bolt is counterd by an nut inside and the head is not press fit down.





0.8mm brass wire bend in strange shape. Artiuculation is enabled by "loose" fit of rear fixing point, in real the screw it is countered.

I hope this give you a little help for your next project.
