Re: Canadian Ruckstell tags
Hello Les,
I am no expert on the Canadian Ruckstell tags. I think the oval tags were attached to the later axles.
Pictured below is the original one that is on my 1924 Ruckstell axle.
Note M.F.D. by Canadian Acme Screw & Gear Company Ltd.
Best regards, John Page, Australia.

Re: Canadian Ruckstell tags
I will make a couple of the oval ones for my own use anyway.
The method does not particularly scale up for volume production.
The process;
1. Make a digital drawing
2. Print on a plastic sheet in a laser printer
3. Transfer the ink to a piece of brass sheet
4. Etch the metal
5. Cut out and polish

Re: Canadian Ruckstell tags
Les,
I could really use one. The tag on my Ruckstell is the same as the picture you posted but is in poor shape.
Thanks
Brian
