How is the central rod fixed at the ends? What failed at the broken end?
I'm sure you will make a good job of this.

Are you the chap I saw on bench talk last week who was sat in his car? I was speauking to Peter Tiffany he said well if it is you that your very skilled woodworker indeed I take it you don’t bother with the social media rubbish? I think the forums are enough really. U.K. workshop was good but so many people jumped ship as I think it was sold and people weren’t pleased with changes or somthing.

I'm rumbled! And a big raspberry to Facebook and its spawn.

I have started work on the brace. Andy Toolsntat kindly provided me with useful information about how these braces go together. I removed the screws that hold the lower infill. Six of them came out intact but I chewed up the other two and had to drill their heads off. The top of the steel linking rod was peined over and I had to grind it with a Dremel tool in order to removed the damaged brass part and the central handle. Further progress reports to follow.

Haha Richard Arnold? His partner said he wasn’t very well wanted a word about somthing for his auction that’s coming up. He’s the only one I’ve really connected with to be honest he was fundamental in my new bench build. The unplugged page is pretty fair to be honest if a bit much for some but other than that feels a waste of time generally

You are making a cracking (pun intended) job on something most of us would have written off as a basket case.
