    With many other things to do I don't get to spend as much time working on this machine as I would like
    However today I did manage to spend a little time on it. I now have 1 side of the main hinge for the top clamp complete and the other ready to assemble an dweld.
    I drilled and ground grease pathways in both the spring eye and the pivot shaft. since the shaft is fixed to the top clamp this makes the cup holding the spring eye and the pivot shaft rotate around the spring, which meant I needed grease both inside and outside of the spring eye.

    Kind of hard to see but grease was forced out both ends of the eye inside and out
