Looking good. Should certainly be an improvement over the original  :D

Was that the one that was on ebay recently ?

Thanks plumber - Hope there back for you Nitrowing - Matt reckons they sometimes vanish for a short while when the photobucket site is being updated.

Not sure if this helps, but I do know "web marshall" and other security features can stop the piccies from showing, as photobucket is considered a social networking site and gets blocked. All you see is a small red x instead of the photo's.

Managed to finally get to take a look at Matt's Goldfinger yesterday as it had developed some belt slip during the Royal Run.The gearbox was setting on the 'fence' and the belt was a good tension however,the output drive cog had suffered some damage to the teeth on the tips. Luckily I had a spare motor to rob a gearbox off. The new output cog was also the slightly longer length so I am confident this should cure it.The photo shows the damaged one on the right hand side :



Seem's Sinclair were on top of all the issue's shame they didn't get a longer run at it - who knows what improvements they would have come up with.
