These sketches come from Colin Reed, and depict the design of a jig he used when metalling rods, the idea is to make the jig quick release without the need to struggle with extremely hot nuts and bolts. The Rod and cap are metalled separately and Colin tells me the process was quite efficient and reduced the need to let the jig cool and then reheat it every time.
