LBSC Gert Drawings

I recently acquired the drawings for 'Gert' and I wonder if anyone can explain why there are two sets of drawings for the cylinders, slide valves & eccentrics?

It seems that the 'original' ? definition of the cylinders, valves & eccentrics are on sheet 3; but an additional sheet 9 is provided that has alternative dimensions for all.

I assume that this sheet 9 was created in order to correct errors or give a more satisfactory solution?

Any help much appreciated.

Gert was a LBSC design produced exclusively for Reeves and was not published in ME certainly, and I suspect not in any other magazine either, so they may be a source of information provided it has been passed on through the various changes in ownership.

This and the 3½" version Daisy, do not even make it into Brian Hollingsworh's book on LBSC.
