[Healeys] Seat slide packing piece

[Mark Donaldson]

Hi, Simon,

 

FWIW, some repro wooden packers I purchased from AH Spares are 3/8” thick,
whereas the original packers, still in good nick, are ¼”

I was considering taking the thicker (repro) ones to a cabinetmaker to have
him run them through a thicknesser to bring them down to ¼”

 

I wonder if there was a change to the greater thickness over the production
years.   Facts and figures, anyone?

Still messing around with the slides. One issue being a certain reluctance
to commit to welding for the very first time.

So, just for my info, how thick are the wooden packing pieces that go under
the slides. Mine are 3/8” as near as damnit.
