Mumbles, thanks for the interesting tip on "off-setting" an object
in a three jaw vise!
The water pump lobe and gear are cast in one, so I’m not sure
if that oil soaked bronze lobe could be built up with braze
without destroying the gear? To tell the truth, I’ve brazed lots
of iron pieced over the years, but never brazed any bronze
pieces, so not sure what to expect.
I ordered a hardened bolt to try to make a prop shaft, as all
I have to do is drill three holes in it. No steps or keyways
need machined.
Prepare to be boarded!
