Binn's Road Solution To Boss Slipping
The Binns Road model room solution to the problem of bosses slipping on
axles, was to use grub and set screws with a point. These were hardened, possibly
case hardened by the grey appearance. On dismantling old display models it was necessary to drive the spindle from the boss, as the screw point made a deep dimple and a raised burr in the soft shaft. Reproduced from spanner with permission of Ken Wright Coventry. |
