yes i do want to do it, i was going to ask one of our Canadian cousins or someone on our rock to take a rubbing on grease proof paper for me (for each pannel) then tape this to the plate and hammer a special chisel i am making over each mark until the entire plate is done

as for the rivets the bottoms ones you see are screw type as per previous discussions... however a pal of mine as a chicago pneumatic rivet gun so i may go back to solid riveting pending on a few things i have to iron out as yet.

i can turn the rivets out quickly on the lathe drilling them then running an m6 tap down
them. The lathe i had access to was at a college and they are running night classes now so cant get access again (hence my advert wanting a lathe)
