Sprayed the blades to encapsulate the rust and then painted them.
We had to make a couple wire braces for the lower section and when we put them together found out they were the wrong length so will try again!

Rocking, wish we had found you sooner. Couple pieces we could have used instead of repairing what we have. Are you close to Kansas City?

We have this part which we think is for turning the tail in/out but is missing parts. Would anybody have parts or pictures of what is needed?
Thanks
Dave

Looks like you're missing the ratchet brake, barrel with gear and handle. I'll see if I can find mine and I'll take a pic maybe there's more missing !!

Don't know how many I have, but I'm not really in the parts biz anyway. If no one comes thru, holler back.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number. IF YOU TALK TO HIM, AND HE HELPS YOU, THEN BUY FROM HIM. IT CREATES GOOD KARMA.
