Brake Photo

I have spent hours trying to send a photo of my Plus brake. One photo went but not the other. I have changed the title 7 times but it keeps telling me I have already sent it. HELP

Neville  - that looks amazing - just as I`d envisaged but even better.  Did you make the patterns & cast the "back to front brake plate ?

Dad made a double front brake for his 80+.
I remember he got the Late Albert Allen to make the pattern for him (he was a pattern maker by profession).
Dad then got one cast in steel and later one in Ali which went on the bike.  He then went on to play around with two front brakes back to back.
All i remember was a lot of filing and polishing and a real bugger to clean when on the bike
