Made a start on the plug leads....



Using 5amp fusewire which is soldered to the holder for strength.

I love the way you've done the brass on that engine.

Thanks guys.

The leads to the plugs themselves are added next. This view from the inside shows how everything is soldered in place for strength so no risk of wires falling off when bending them to shape. The brass rod is used to mount the cover to the engine using 2 small holes I have drilled out in cylinders 2 & 5...



Side one done...

    Brilliant work on the holder and plug wires Gary; I scratched the holder out of brass as well on my W.12 Build but didn't attempt soldering the wires, I can see it's a much better method.
Great Build you have going here, I'll continue to follow your progress and learn more!
Cheers,
Lance
