What a shame that damage happened in route Bruce.
How terrible do philips head screws look on such nice pieces!
Don't see these very often.....nice! That flywheel has some wobble :(

2nd vid
Well that glue didn't work (permanently at least!).

3rd vid
Soldered now....and ain't goin'anywhere now!
Clever getting it square Bruce

Shame about the pump presently, but golly you have that running S-M-O-O-T-H Bruce!
They really are quite elegant and beautiful pieces, if I ever got the chance to purchase one of these in Oz, I'd be all over it.
Your Stuart Beam looks great in the grey, same as mine. So often I've thought to take it apart and paint it, but I really do like it in the grey.
A very interesting drive pulley on yours Bruce.

That was an interesting and enjoyable four part series to view mate :)
