Neat trick with the orings. I made my assembly dowels from wood. Pretty easy, if you can’t find the nylon jobbies.

This whole post needs to be a Sticky. It’s as good or better than Novak’s or the ...

Let's get these parts looking good again!

After the paint stripper the parts went into a heated parts washer. The parts washer did a great job of removing any paint, grease, dirt etc. Once out ...
