My 26T Coupe build thread

[pat mccarthy]

Pat i meant polishing the face of the washer, the edge is easy

I tried an old polishing pigtail today to do the washers and it worked really well, dunno why i didn't think of it before

Been polishing 3/8" castle nuts today, what a pain they are

well i did not mean the edge i bolted the one side of the washer down with a flat head then i buff the washer face . i did all my button heads and bolts this way bolt them in a stick .them button heads are EZ to buff . the STICK your calling a pig tail .i make up my .AN washer i buy the bigger washer with big O.D then if i need a good fitting 3/8 i buy a 5/16 id washer .i can buy them cheap stack up 15 to 20 on a long bolt and lock them all down with a nut the drive the 3 jaw off the nut and the bolt is a center drill in one end for the live center .then face them all down on the lathe sure beats cutting them out of flat plate and a hole saw that s abit of a pain i needed a off size and made up some like that too
