[QUOTE="david bowen, post: 31894, member: 799"] Pm. Yes this was where the heads were ground in to the barrels there was a electric driven turn table jig and you had to put Carborundun grit paste between the head and barrel and work it back and forward untill both surfaces were blended in. Stan Duddington was the clown in the engine section he painted on to the Jig( Iiiegitimi non Cardorumdun ) which he told us ment from the latin Dont let the bastards grind you down. his other saying at the top of his voice what was the engine drivers name of Mallard when it broke the world steam train speed record We all called out Driver Duddington it was Stans uncle, Stan during the war was the engine room engineer on MTBs his engines were Thronycrofts. Stan joined Denis Minetts Lightning shop in 1949 and after a few years was employed by Raymond Mays at BRM racing cars. [/QUOTE]
