[AT] Webster Magneto Bracket

[Dave Ernst]

It's been very damp, cold and foggy here so I cranked up the heat in the 
shop and built something I've been meaning to do for a long time. I have 
several things that run with Webster magnetos and every time I have to work 
on one I end up clamping it in the vise to hold it while trying to trip the 
mechanism to check spark, and invariably the thing comes loose and falls 
out. So with the cold nasty fog outside I built a bracket to hold them. I 
used an old igniter from a Alamo engine, a piece of  4 X 4 angle and mounted 
the igniter to the angle. Made a handle and a couple of slides for the push 
rod, mounted the trip finger and I was done. Works great, makes me wonder 
why I didn't do this years ago. I guess when we get older we eventually get 
wiser.........
