Hi Tom if you look at post #8 you will get the idea. click on the drawing and it will open full screen.
Pete Open the drawing and look behind the cylinder the tensioning roller is mounted on a ear protruding from the sandwich plate,
The pin will be eccentric so turning it will push the roller against the belt, locking will be by a nut at the rear of the plate and a grub screw. This plate will also hold the engine mounts.
A Pup would be nice Pete but if it ever happens I think it will be a Bellancer. (I think that is spelt wrong) or a early Cesner
simple high wing design, short nose with the cylinders poking out of the cowling Mmmmm But lets get the motor built first.
