Hi Phil,
Many thanks for your kind offer of photos and dimensions of the metal stand. A friend who is skilled at welding has offered to make the stand for me, it's just a matter of finding the right metal tubing. Square and round section will be required.
I'll continue investigating the sync circuits to find out why the set performs in the matter it does. Considering Ferguson must have made hundreds of thousands of sets using the frame sync differentiator all working without any problems the fault is almost certainly unique to my set. BRC chassis types employing this type of frame synchronising were the 500, 600, 700 and the 800/850 series. 900/950 series have something similar.

I'm sure there is mention of this type of frame sync in one of the Spreadbury books.

DFWB.
