Almost! I have been experimenting with wide belting, but the leather I currently have is a bit stretchy. I am experimenting with some others and hope to have a good product soon. They may not have the stitching however. I have been trying to source someone to stitch it locally. Will kep you all posted. John Robles

I saw my first BC today. It seems to have a modern replacement for the vulcanite "shoe". Does anyone have an original instruction sheet for this baby? I'd like to know what the sliding brass sleeve on the drive shaft to the amber wheel does, for instance.
