Spiral balance foot back from the platers.

An update on the last post I put up - they are back from the platers.
















It seems that the next one I will be doing is this one.

















These were fitted to Kawneer Vertical Sliding Sashes, which are the same sashes that we make the Fitch Catch for.

This one.

Spiral Balance Brackets - Shoes - Feet

These are the components that a Spiral Sash Balance
engages into - known as Shoes, Feet or Brackets.



















 This is a custom job, to re-make the one you see in 
the centre of the image.

This is a good example of what can be achieved when
making replica parts.
Off to the platers today - will take another shot when
they return.

Teleflex Ratchet Handles.

Teleflex is a well known manufacturer of control gear,
which is used to operate high level windows.

One of the Teleflex handles has a ratchet on it, to allow
it to be used in a tight space.

This job was to operate Teleflex control gear, that was
mounted behind a secondary glazing panel, so extension
pieces were made to suit the distance required.




















That way, the outer windows could be operated without
opening the inner panels.
