Noticed, after drilling the hole for the Ankle bush, that the wood filler had cracked slightly along the join lines. So drilled some more counter-sunk holes and fixed in screws along the leg section, around the shoulder and two more through the bottom of the ankle. I then applied more wood filler.

Whilst I was working on the ankle wedge sides, I took the opportunity to drill and press fit the Ankle bush into the centre leg [below].

Hi James, looking good. Where did you source the ankle bushes? Tried a few places, but no joy unless specially made.

Hi Andre, yes, I made them myself. Found some 12mm dia bar and drilled a 10mm dia hole up the middle (work's lathe). Then after drilling hole in ankle, used a vice to press the bush(s) in.
