I recently had the good fortune to find some relics from the past, including a Stuart 10H casting kit, a Potts milling spindle and a dore westbury boring and facing head kit of castings.

might be a long shot but wondered if anyone had plans for the dore westbury kit? possibly better chance maybe if i posted on the model engineer UK forum but my log on seems not to be working any more, so thought Id ask here first.

the boring head basically is meant to look like this

what I got is this

the kit is bottom right

while I could make it up as I go along when machining, just though it might be useful to know what sizes things were meant to be.

Interestingly the Stuart 10h kit is possibly 1940s vintage as it uses mostly 3/32 BSW threads which I found were replaced with size 7BA bolts in these Kits around 1950.

thanks
