Yes, the Square
I would do belt and braces. Fill the hole with new oversized dowels and drill them out with the correct sized hole. Then use the square washer with a nylock nut.
Thanks Nice one Ollie. I'd go with the square washers as they will also cover any old, worn hole, once they've been filled with stopping to prevent them adding to any shifting in tension and shaking loose. Things twist a bit when on the move, hence the wear. Cheers again Ollie. Catch up soon, buddy!.
Thank you so much for the donation Flymo! Really goes along way ( well straight back into the wagons! ) square deffo seem the most popular!
Morning! If you go with what Andy 741 said, a rectangle plate drilled for both, you could hide it by carefully chiselling a chanel into the wood for it to sit in, then seal around the edges with something like an exterior caulking, if you can smooth it out nicely it won't be noticeable, then you can use the round washer and be totally original!
(Sorry if thats a bit rivet-counterie)
Another great vid, love that you are using barge/boat paint, I'm just doing my first boat jobs, they have a world of stuff that crosses over to rail, car and house restoration.
Thanks for the vids Dude!
Thanks for the tips, you will see in an upcoming video what i decided to go for as these videos are all filmed weeks prior to going on RUclips! Really glad you enjoyed, means alot !
Another enjoyable episode Ollie, with some nice interludes too. Not that I know a lot but I'd go with the square washer. It looks tidier. All the best.
I don't know much either Tim so you're not the only one! Thanks for watching mate
Another cracking video, gotta be the square bolts. They just look right. Carl.
Thanks for the kind words Carl!
Thanks
Colin thank you so much for the donation! Really appreciate it, all going straight back into the brake van 💚
Nice video , all I heard at the begging was my loco on the mini railway horning lol 😂
So that was you 😆😆
Hi Olly, we think the square washers are better. Also remember to paint the bottom of the doors this will stop rising damp/ water ingress. Another great video mate.
Yeh, I also plan to leave a gap under the door to ever prevent them from getting wet again!
Another great episode. The square washers look good and neater.
Glad you like them & glad you enjoyed the episode Barrie :)
Your aluminium primer looked very thin. The stuff I normally use is very opaque and you can't see much of the timber through it. I would also recommend flatting the gloss back between coats so the paint adheres to the previous layer properly. I'm into wagon restoration at the bluebell so picked up these tops from there. Matt
Wonderful video
Cheers!
wonderful video
Cheers mels
When you use a paint roller, you are supposed toput the paint into a tray, then you can load the roller by working it in the tray of paint, rather than as you did, dip one end, and try to spread it!-- - Safety rail bracket washers - I'd use the square ones, it spreads the load more.
Yeah i would just get a paint roller tray and a couple of larger paint rollers from b&q or something because otherwise you'll be there for days with a brush or the mini roller.
Clearly im also incapable of using a roller correctly, ha! thanks for the tips though, i'll get it right one day
I would go for square washers Ollie, with external mastic. When painting work from one side to other, as on the rare warmer days there is less chance of the paint rippling, you seam to work a bit had hock (one area to another) when painting, I have just repainted my narrowboat roof worked from bow to stern left to right.
Yeh much like my painting im a bit all over the place, I will do something in the correct order one day lol
@@WardleRestorations 😂😂🤣🤣just glad Ollie your enjoying your new projects + your working with some of my old mates 👍, when I first joined the CVR in 1979, we used to stay around John Stevens house (more he had a old caravan, in his garden & off to one of the two pub's in Topplesfield, for chicken & chips in a plastic basket, with too many pints (ask Vernon (kettle department) or Andy (S&T) about decorating rose bushes😵💫) Andy's breakfast was two headache tablets 😒
I wonder if "Return to Wardle Road" written on the side of the van might be more in keeping with the standard type of Brake van wording?
Not a bad idea!
nice one, 100% those Square Washers, like you said covers the holes already there, and yeah just looks neater and cleaner, this brakevan has alrwady come so far, it looks so good
Hey Ollie, a most enjoyable mash up, thanks. I think the square washer looks better. Looking forward to the next update. Take care my young friend. :) :) :)
Thank you Colin, I may have found an alternative solution which you'll see in an upcoming video!
Another great video with progress and look forward to seeing that logo on the door.
Me too! Will be sorted at some point!
Just my opinion from across the pond but I think the square washer is far more practical for such a vintage car.
All opinions matter! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thanks!
Great video to watch and see your progress. The aluminium primer looked a bit thin. As I've found out in the past it might have separated out and takes an age to stir up again. Also one more top tip I was shown - prior to painting over paint, give it a quick sand and then wipe down with white spirit on an old rag as it gives it a good key for the next coat of paint. Anyway, have fun and all the bets with your projects. I look forward to seeing them progress. You're doing a grand job. :)
Thank you for the kind words, really means a lot and a super thank you for the donation! Yeh the primer was 100% not mixed enough and far too watery so its a lesson learnt for next time I use it!
@@WardleRestorations no worries. More power to your elbow 🤓👍
very good video, progress is coming along nicely, thankyou for sharing this journey, my two bobs worth on the washers is maybe a metal 1/4 inch rectangle plate say 2"x6" that has two holes drilled for both bolts then round spring/split washers then nuts, similar to the bracket on the roof corner above your head in the video, all the best and look forward to watching you progress.
Thanks for the tips! I have plenty of ideas to think about now but still need to sandblast all the handles etc before bolts are put back in.
Square washers look best
Cheers Keith!
Square washer I think 👍, is this brake van yours or the railways ?
Hi mate this brake van is mine 🙂👍
Slow and steady wins the race. Take a little break, there are a few new videos on my channel you might like to look at. Railway Nightmare is one. Don't let it scare you.
I will do! Thanks for watching Kelly 🙂
