+--- Thread: Rist horn points assembly (/showthread.php?tid=7354)
Rist horn points assembly - Nick Mayne - 01-04-2022
Can somebody tell me the order of assembly of the points? I have insulator plates, metal plates. assembly screw insulator washers, the fixed body plate, the outside plate joined to the wire and the moving point plate!
In the rest state I assume the points are closed is that correct?
Thanks, Nick

Hi Nick
This sketch might help. I'm not sure I fully understand it myself, but it made sense 15 years ago and the horn is still working !

Thanks Martin & John. The diagram is just what I wanted; I made the classic mistake of assuming I would remember or figure out the order and did not record it!
