I am building (or attempting to build!) a 5" Galatea, starting with the tender. On the General Arrangement drawing, a 1/4" diameter hole is shown to accommodate the scoop lift control Shaft. On the detailed drawings of the scoop lift and linkage it shows dimensions of the bushes required – 1 for the trunnion support bracket and 3 different but identical bushes (1 for the outer frame and 2 for the scoop lift bracket) with 3/8" diameter projection to fit the 1/4" hole I have mentioned.

How can this be? Where am I mis-reading the drawings? Or – dare I say it? – is there an error in the drawings? I am reluctant to enlarge the 1/4" hole without advice – can anyone offer anything?
