...Back from the third world Toilet called the "bay area". I kinda wish the rapture would have at least let San Francisco fall into the ocean. Oh well...I'll do whatever I can to help the Mayans make a better prediction so I can plan accordingly.
Before I left I pulled some gear boxes and another I had on hand apart to make a new one. Check out the sweet Varnish on the higher time box. Lots of other interesting crud in there. Anyhoo...putting it back together now with a pretty new flywheel, centerforce clutch...bearings and re-seal..and another 4 speed I had laying around.
I also tossed in some pictures of the new and improved HF press I recomposed after bending the **** out of the one that came with it. Same basic design...bigger metal. I could have lost a testicle when that sucker bent. It happend long ago on another project, and I have been making due. But figured i'd fix it good now. BTW, mostly you don't need a press for much on the old tcases. Tubes, drifts and hammers work for most thingys that must be removed and re-assembled.
I am adding some pictures
