My rig for measuring tooth lash on bevel drives. The relieved jig "door" keeps the ring gear concentric while being easy to assemble and disassemble. The "axle"and large "Nut" compress the bronze shim for accurate measurements. The little thumbwheel opens an expansion joint, locking the lower ring to the splines hub, allowing the operator to "wiggle" the ring gear and get the measurement. The pinion is locked with a tapered clamp. I believe this is an improvement over the somewhat primitive method described in the factory manual. #beveldriverepair #gearboxrepair #scottiesworkshop #vintagebmwmotorcycles

Parts repainted and Tim has everything nearly assembled. I’m glad we decided to take it apart and do it right, although it was more work. The outcome is worth it: it usually is. #bmwk1 #vintagebmwmotorcycles #scottiesworkshop

Picked up this cruddy #marantz 1090 Integrated Amplifier on the cheap. It seems to work but the auto disconnect preamplifier - amplifier RCA jacks are wonky. I may just replace them with standard gold plated RCA jacks and see what happens. #audiophile
