Long ago I was given one of these, long before I had much interest. In the meantime, it has got a bit rusty. I have dipped it in some bilt hambler deox-c, and it will make a reasonable user, but in the process I fear that I have lost one of the screws that retains the removable side plate. Does anybody know what thread it might be- I have seen one source of them online but it is in the USA. I am not desperate to return it to as new condition- it will never make a collectable piece and whilst not that common it isnt that rare either. Its value to me is that it saves having to buy another!
The knob at the front screws onto the body, but was missing. Again, anybody know the thread, or is there a way of making a knob and making it cut its own thread?
Finally, the blade needs a grind. Anybody got a jig to do skewed blades on and willing to help me for a beer token- I am not greatly talented at doing normal ones and I imagine this needs a reasonable degree of precision!
Cheers
