Thanks for adding me!? I see a number of familiar folks here, so forgive me if some of this stuff is redundant to some of you!
My question involves a #3, but would probably apply to any of the pre-#8 models.? Has anyone ever ventured to remove the bobbin hook from within the main cam?
I've finally gotten this one to turn, but it's still really gummed up, and the rust is so pervasive that a thorough cleaning is going to involve the removal of certain parts.? That aspect would be easiest with a nearly-complete dissection.? I think I grasp how the thing functions, and I realize that re-timing will be required if I manage to disassemble it all, but I don't want to go whacking away at things without some additional guidance.
Thanks, and cheers!
