Constantly impressed by your ingenuity . When you look at the brand new Hornby Black 5 and some of the issues it has , you wonder if they shouldn’t have you as an advisor on behalf of the consumer . The voice of practicality and reason !

Your ability to think out of the box and find ways to successfully repair parts that no longer exist has always impressed me! Keep up the great work Bill. 👍

Gripping Stuff from Operating Theatre there Doctor Bill 😅 - Gone are the Days when things were made to last, we’re in the Disposable Age where they make stuff all complex so we throw it away and buy a New one. Great Fix Brother 👍🏻

Gorgeous little locomotive!! All mine are Southern Railway steam locomotives with the exception of a diesel multiple unit with sound and a Great Western Railway Railmotor as restored on the Great Western Heritage Railway.

Well done Bill - I felt the tension during the final tensioning of the new screw! Have you considered getting a Dremel - it may be easier to use than your normal drill? You can get a chuck to fit the Dremel so that holes up to about 2.5mm diameter can be drilled. Best wishes and, as ever, thank you for the presentations.

I use the Dremel drill press and/or the Dremel vice. Both excellent tools.

I'll know what to do when my superglued B1 bracket fails. Could you advise the make/model of the drill you are using? - thanks

Look for PULITUO cordless driver and drill on Amazon. I very much recommend it it's a fantastic little drill and much better at drilling than any Dremel type tool. Small, light weight, fits comfortably in the hand and you have full control over speed and direction while in operation. Also has a wee LED light which is very useful. Battery lasts for ages too!

Nice job however I think I would have used a hand drill/ pin vice less chance of slipping and drilling something vital.

@chriswade7470 Ай бұрын

I have an Archimedes drill, with collets, to do this sort of work. I also have a Dremel Type electric drill (Lidls Parkside Brand)

@oobill Ай бұрын

I have a rotary tool which I use for cutting and polishing. I think they are pretty much useless for drilling. It's much easier to have a trigger speed control and have true variable speed that starts at 0 rpm. That way you can position the drill bit before drilling which is crucial. Dremels start at 5000 rpm or thereabouts which makes them very tricky to use in very delicate operations such as this. With this little drill I use I have full control over the speed and direction of spin without moving the drill. And as a wee bonus it has an LED light that shines on the subject which is hugely helpful. I really don't like the idea of putting a fully built split chassis loco in a pin vice! I have an Archimedes drill that I have used on occasion but don't find them particularly effective. Takes way too long to drill to any kind of depth. A small power drill that has true variable speed from 0 rpm up with a trigger control is much better I find in all cases.

@@oobill A pin vice is a little hand drill with collets for various sizes of drill bits they are used by jewellers and PCB building. They are slower than an electric drill but that's the point less chance of drilling a finger or something even more vital like a shiny valve gear component

@oobill Ай бұрын

Crikey I forgot what a pin vice was! I'd use one or an archemedes drill rather than a Dremel for certain. But so long as you can start the drill in position at 0 RPM and slowly speed it up you won't slip or damage anything. Or break the bit which I've done a few times in the past with archemedes drills. It's personal preference at the end of the day.
