And what do you know? It just slid right out!! The GT85 penetrating fluid I'm using in lieu of WD40 must have quietly done its work over the last 24 hours. Only did a bit tonight, I'm knackered! And getting all sorts of aches and twinges from lumping all these heavy, er, lumps around.įirst up, I figured I'd have one last look at the countershaft/motor plate/headstock foot, to see if I couldn't wrangle the buggers free. With a bit of luck, it'll pull itself back into shape without needing any work. Once I strap it down to a base (unfortunately I don't have the original base - it was there, but I couldn't transport it) I'll see what happens. Nrml - I'm thinking, per Pekka's comment, that I might just ignore it for the time being. I'm sure I'll find some when I come to dismantle the slides. Chipenter - no taper pins so far! Everything's held together with grub screws, cap-head bolts or regular nuts/bolts.
