So it was back to re-designing the pivot arm and linkage points.
I first used a piece of cardboard to gauge the distance after I took photos of the gaps that the pivot arm would need to be extended by.
I then redrew these up in work on Inventor. I countersunk the nut so that it looked good lol, no other reason other than the length of the bolt. Both parts seen in picture one were then reprinted in 3D PLA filament.
Recessing the nut, just makes fitting easier. It's a push fit into the recess, so is help tight.
Next up is the electronics, electrical & the smoke system to be re-installed. This will be next week as this weekend I'll be at the NEC Birmingham.
