Thanks Mike! I think you did that mill in record time!

Windy Bob , i like your idea of painting different parts different colors to demonstrate how all the parts work together .
But , I am not as brave as you , so , I just painted the tail spring silver to show what ir does , in your honor .

Windy , how is the heart doing ?
You know you scared us for a little while .
We care.

Mike, I scare myself when I look in the mirror.

I might have that part. Will swing by the bonepile and see. I have a couple of those mills
for parts.

Todays question ?
Is there a specific size / # chain used for the pull out ?
I stuck the largest chain inside that would fit , is that OK ?

From the pics Mike the chain looks a little big for the sheave does the chain bind when links turn sideways. If there's no binding or friction it should be ok
