Nice work Pete.
I made one like that for the Logan, but had to go to the design I used for the Peerless to get closer to the table. I don't have a proper vice yet so made a heavy V block to hold hubs, that puts the part close to the table where the clapper box would hit.
Interestingly I read an article where they recommended a longer arm on the bar. When its built as yours the clapper has to be locked to get down force on the cutter, as the arm gets longer the push on the cutter holds the cutter down.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
