The T slots seem to be imperial if thats of any use, the T width being 1/2" and the slot 1/8" high. The groove is 1/4" wide.

There doesn't seem to be any scribe or point to make a line, the insert in the piece is a hollow divit.

This piece holds a small insert

That has a screw to hold it in place and a hex screw to set the depth of the insert.

This is the range of movement

To this

This came in a box of bits I bought at auction.
Anyone know what it is or what it's for ?

I've thrown up a few photos of the Cowells for anyone who is interested.

I'm just outside Longford Paul, but shur with this internet thingy no one is very far away antmore.

I'd be a fan of the French Clocks too Russell, I have a 4 glass crystal regulator I'm "working" on at the moment .

Thanks for the welcome Chris, I live in the South but go up North quite a bit, I raced RC Cars in the North for many years. Have a few friends who are regulars at the North West 200.

I spotted the Cowells online , there was an auction selling a load of stuff from a guy who was into large guage scratch built model trains, there was only one other bidder and I just needed it more, got it very cheap in the end. There was a box of accessories a few lots later and I was the only bidder on those . practically stole them.

I have it stripped down and cleaned , hope to get a chance to reassemble it over the Christmas.

Hi all,

I'm Neil and I joined up lately after purchasing a Cowells 90ME at auction in Northern Ireland.

In a previous life I did watch and jewellery repair but now I plat with R/C cars, N and Z scale trains and old French Clocks.
