[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 968314, member: 243342"] More work done on the Jumbo motor this morning. As the motor's spindle at the bottom has a groove - something that does not exist on the original one - to stop the bottom plate rotating around if the bolt isn't done up tight, I thought I would adapt the original bottom plate to make use of it. [ATTACH]92358[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]92361[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]92359[/ATTACH] I've also replaced all the bolts to INOX/stainless steel/нержавейка including the top declination adjusting screw. It's all done up tight, since the declination will be handled by a jack rather than be fixed.
