Some minor progress today, the AP master cylinder was fitted after shortening the shaft by 10mm as instructed. The supplied steel brake pipe link seemed very short to me certainly with this master cylinder (although my lack of pipe bending skills may have something to do with it !) and I decided to replace it with copper/nickel which made it easy to bend and a positive fit square into the bore, fingers crossed it looks fine. Spent an awful long time looking for parts I really wish I had room to spread everything out I am sure it would cut down the amount of time not actually working. 28 hours total time building thus far, there may be a danger fossil fuels will run out before we are ready to run !
