Stephen, have you contacted “The Glasgow Maritime Museum, housed within the architecturally stunning Riverside Museum, is an absolute treasure trove, serving as the definitive answer for anyone looking to truly grasp the profound maritime heritage of Glasgow and the mighty River Clyde. It’s not just a collection of artifacts; it’s a vibrant, immersive journey into the heart of a city that once built a quarter of the world’s ships.“

Do you have a thread lock adhesive called Loctite in the UK? If so you might consider using the blue, removable version applied to the shaft threads. Use on all my builds with absolutely no loosening problems.
