Fabricating Dawgs

[Dan Curtis]

Ah yes . I thought you mean double dawgs . Not so critical with one . I would go for 2.5mm stainless .

 

I was looking at the 576 this afternoon and I might need to drill the side plate to mount doubles, unless using the bar mount would hold it rigid enough. Kind of like a 395 but without the second attachment.

 

I think I'll try single first, see what happens

[ATTACH]170466[/ATTACH] I cut these ones out of 5mm sheeting, works pretty well

 

Very nice, they look much more aggressive than the standards. Did you have any issues with where the points were located?

Not sure about a 576 as I don't have one . On a 372/390 it mounts through the bar studs with a small retaining screw on the 560 the clutch cover has mount points cast into it with a hex recess for a captive nut . You just have to drill through the clearance size of the screw .

I used the old ones as a template then just use a rule to make the lines straight out from the old teeth untill they met up and use a plasma cutter

old ones against the new ones

Is that a 560? My standard set don't even look as aggressive as your originals.

I have a brand new set of double dawgs for a 562 if any one needs them ( won't fit a 560 unless you get a 562 clutch cover though ) Pic is 560 with double dawgs . 562 ones are more aggressive

If its a sheet its gauge plate

 

It would be gauge plate if its to an imperial gauge, more likely to be metric these days:laugh1:

Still called gauge plate . Only round stock is called silver steel
