AH DAMN! Now you did it!
I wish that I had seen your comment sooner, about bead blasting the mechanism.
We have all been pounding on you, 'Not to restore this machine'. Bead blasting mechanism parts should only be done
when a machine is going to be completely restored. This is only done when you are going to have parts cad-plated, or
painted, or clear-coated, as the newly blasted steel parts will rust quicker than you can say "Oh Sh*t", because you have
now removed the protective coating that those parts left the factory with. When trying to keep a machine as original as
possible, there are ways to clean parts, so as to retain its originality.
I know you sent me your phone number, but did not have time to call as yet, because of family visiting. Will try ASAP.
Until then, please park this project, and put a model kit together, or the like.
Bill
