Cone is cleaning up OK. A little more work to be done yet, to dull the finish down a bit.
20160722_200437-resized-1024.jpg 20160722_200451-resized-1024.jpg There are some light dents that are not able to be removed, and a few scratches, but it's quite presentable. Must get my other one out and compare the two. 20160722_200508-resized-1024.jpg 20160722_200353-resized-1024.jpg Ordered this bore cleaning brush set a few minutes ago. 557.jpg

The axle is now reassembled wheel to wheel.
20160724_162645-resized-1024.jpg 20160724_162357-resized-1024.jpg Several of the original wheel nuts did NOT wish to go back on again. Their resolution in that regard was unwavering, so I didn't force the issue. I'll run a tap through them, and look for replacement of some which were missing entirely. 20160724_162703-resized-1024.jpg 20160724_162730-resized-1024.jpg I do like the look of the chosen tyres. They will do just fine. Pity they don't show more enthusiasm for going onto CMP wheels.  20160724_162908-resized-1024.jpg Now taken a good look at my old ranging cone. It is in better shape than the recently acquired one, so will be the one which gets used, eventually! The main body of sight mounting assembly won't be with me for a little while yet, but it'll get here! Another batch of minor parts should be on the way soon. Some for sight assembly, some not. Between brake parts offered for measuring, and what I have bought recently, I should be able to make a reasonable replication of the original system.

Tony.
Maybe it's just the angle differences between the two photos you took, but the broad ends of the two Ranging Cones you have look as if they are marked differently. Are they different, or is it just me after a very long day? David
