Greetings all,
Hmm, ok, here is the autopsy.
As per factory instruction, I went to the pharamacy and told them I wanted
straight methanol. I placed the action in an area where it would not be
disturbed and put one drop on each hammer center. I waited 24 hours without
touching it.
Upon trial, I find that almost half of the center pins were so loose
that the hammers wiggle side to side! I must go back and repin this whole
line before I can trust the action to work. I was taught to repin, and I
have done a lot of it, and I don't trust the chemical "sizing" process to
give consistant results.
Anybody else have this happen? And Lance, I know that in N.O.
anything goes, but we are not all tropical!(:)}}}
Regards,
Ed Foote
