Is this what's called "putting a spanner in the works" ?

Team-work.
Flat ring spanner came out of Richards tool kit (was it returned?), cable ties from a n other, superb engineering by Bob.
Over the years, that green car does seem to have been victim to the odd breakdown.

In my experience, temporary bodges like that have a tendency to be less temporary than expected. I still have a Snap-On ratchet handle welded onto the stub of my kick starter arm which was a get-me-going bodge at least five years ago...
