Hey Art, got a picture of the back of the mirror we'll know what we're looking for (I'm assuming that's an original)......ought be able to find one for $200-$300 on eBay, just wanted to know what we're looking for.

Sean,
Even the knock out fits against the flat edge of the mirror pivot just like it should without any play!
Again...great job!!!!

So does the knockout keep the mirror from 'twirling' or what? Or is it supposed to hold it steadier?
P.S.
I found out I've got a mirror, a 'real' one! woo hoo!!!! Edited by rocnroll - 01 May 2007 at 7:54pm |

Chad,
I'd say that it keeps the pivot from spinning when you attach the mirror, like a jamb nut.

My PTO cover parts arrived and look great! Haven't put them on as yet. Opted for the black zinc plating and am very pleased with the results. Thank you Sean for the great work and good luck!

Sean,
Did you make the dies for these brackets?
Did you press the parts out yourself ? If so, I may have some questions about the process.
Great Job!

The cost of having proper Tool & Die pieces fabricated was prohibitive: $600-1200. So I just concocted something together out of pieces from my scrap bin. I said it was crude, belive me. It was merely an experiment to see if it I could do it. It worked quite well though, good enough to get me thru a 25-piece production run! It's about wore out now, & needs re-sharpening, maybe complete retooling. Sean Edited by sean - 13 July 2008 at 5:44pm |
