PDWA & Rheostat Rebuild pages competed

[Brosky]

The list of pages to update is getting smaller, which is good because that means I'm starting to run out of projects. Well, at least for now, knock on wood!

These two subjects have been discussed and I posted some pics, but this will go beginning to end for each.

Nice write-ups, Paul! Thanks for taking the time for pictures and documentation. Hopefully, a couple of winter projects for me. One question, what is NeverDull?

Paul, again a great presentation. I wouldn't have thought of JB Weld to put it back together. Glad that I opened the presentation up.

Nice job!

Dick,

Never Dull is a wadding/cleaner that gunsmiths, machinists and restoration experts use to clean metal. It's about $4-$5 per can and it lasts forever.

On the Ace Page below, there is also a product called Cape Cod Metal Polish. This is unbelievable stuff for silver, gold or any metal; to make it look great and smells just like vanilla, so your hands never stink when you use it.

If only the LBC community could sponsor/support/afford Paul's of Pawtucket Better Than New British Restorations! The work undertaken and done is so comprehensive and beautiful. Thanks for sharing along the way.

Thanks for the compliments, Simpson.

It's just a hobby, but I'm just as crazy as most, maybe a little more than others about details. Having spent the better part of my life working on cars for a living and reading vague factory manuals, I probably get into too much detail, but for those who have never done this work, detail is important.

And I still miss things that I take for granted, but shouldn't assume that others would.

In any event, they are just there to help and show how certain jobs can be done.
