Enigma

Thanks for the reply.

Which begs the quastion why that Mozzie was there in the first place.

Very good mannequin size....ie. xxxxtra-small?

I love the details. So much nicer than just a standard model. Well done!!

No snow here. But it is cold though.

Ah well the French were always a little behind...😅

The Dodge turns 80 today.

Well done!!

I think you can buy decal paper (water transfer) to use in a laserprinter. Maybe worth looking into that? Here a link I found; https://www.craftycomputerpaper.co.uk/laser-water-slide-decal-paper/

Didn't know that. I'll let you know if I find another supplier.

My BSA is a ex Scandinavian one. My quil thinghy and wingnut. And decals.

My must be a very late one. Its in the R48*** range, has a smooth wingnut (no logo), black undercoat, painted green and has all the original decals. What does quill type and pedal boos mean? (I'm Dutch.) Still have the original outer tyres (removed from bike) and I think I use a original inner tube. BTW, I have seen 1 folding bike with BSA on its individual chain parts.

Glad to be able to help mate. The grip that broke on mine is I think a repro. Its quit a thick bakelite while originally there was one complete and part of the original ones on it. Repro's are thicker and noticibly heavier. Also the repro's are closed one 1 end. Because the original ones are way thinner there is parer between the handlebar and grip itself. See pic. BEWARE when attaching repro's; don't whack them on! Big risk to break them. Carefully slide them on to find out if they fit loosely or bind up immediately. I ended up after another breakage to sand it on the inside to reduce its internal diameter and used painters tape on the handlebars before sliding the repro's on. After my repair yesterday I'll sand some more to get a better fit. In the photo's the 2 original ones on the left, repro on the right

At least some compromise was reached but I can totally understand how you feel. Hopefully next year you get to properly enjoy your ride.

I'll upload pics in a minute. Did break the bakelite handle bar grip again (foor the 3-4rd time now) when putting the bike back.

And shouldn't it have a Kings Crown on it considering its dated 1941?

Looks like a fun vehicle.

Wow, very very impressing. Well done to all involved!

Brexit may be a bit of a obstacle for the mainland Europeans. Especially if you want to buy or sell stuff We went to A&E and back in France got checked quit a bit (delivery van). I even got questioned again If I bought stuff because I had a bag with sets of uniform emblems. I explained those were sets because we didn't know what heavy vehicle we'd be on so the badges were brought to correctly portray the unit of the vehicle. Thing is bringing or taking back goods can mean taxes and more hassle. Even bringing food and drinks would cost. For a trader its a lot of extra administration which might mean less mainland traders. So the old days size wise are unlikely. But it could still become a good and big show if new management or a similar show would be organised.

I love that gearbox cover, very steampunk.

Scotland has started practicing for a renewed struggle for independence..?

Ah, I see. Should be no problem, your shed is like a game of Tetris.

Will you round of the plate holder? Just in case you scrape your leg in the shed when squeezing past it.
