I then turned 2 x 12mm wasted steel bushed threaded 6mm to replace the nuts and a third drilled 6mm to provide a pivot bush for the operating mechanism. These were welded to the underside of the plate and the fitted into the hole in the frame.
The welding into the frame was not my finest hour as I managed to burn 3 holes which had to be filled in and then ground back (no pictures allowed until I get it completely straight)
