I think I have seen more of those Rollers with that sloppy solder repair than with the studs to hold that bracket on, good for you Richard to fix it right.

Same here! I’ve had 3 of these and 2 were smeared with solder. The 3rd is new in the box so I may have to find that and get a picture for Rich…

New in the box, I would LOVE to see that - what a wonderful item to have in your collection!!

Strange that so many would be "fixed" the way mine was... it really wasn't a hard fix. Granted I was a little worried heating it up to get all the old solder off - often it is so much harder to fix the previous fix. There is some other solder blobs that doesn't seem right around the burner cage but I left that alone.

here's a video with it running with the correct chain - it no longer flies off!
