(this one is at least listed as Bob Jackson refurb, but looks to be a 50's/60's road track with Nervex lugs) -
Enter your text here...I have a bag of quick release mudguard wingnuts if you need a replacement one. They're quiet a bit larger than bluemels sets but as far as I know they are 1950's

What are you building up?

damn wish I'd seen that earlier. Gone now

I had thought of the bench vice option but don't have one of my own. Having said that, the chainring design has so many 'spokes' to it I think it may hold up anyway. And if the weather is nice and everyone else is doing it I may well ride the Paragon fixed on tubs or on 27 rims anyway and just change the rear sprocket to a 16 or 17......

How about a list of those intending to ride:

Works rather well that set up above. . I will be there on the 2nd June on my fixed Paragon I think, as I've discovered a rather alarming crack in my chainring on the RRA (they often seem to crack in the same place it seems, right where they screw into the back of the crank arm a la Chater Lea. Both my chainrings have it and the current one is stuck on the crank, I can't shift one of the bolts to get it off and I don't want to mash it up anymore than it is already.) I shall have a good ride with it beforehand to see if it holds up and take it from there.
What sort of time were we thinking of meeting in Staines, as it's take me a while to shlep across London to get there early....?
Now those are what I call cycling socks
