Egon_247 Posted December 9, 2023 Posted December 9, 2023 Some pews just try you, don't they? Boneyard M14. I've learned a LOT repairing this beastie. Only I've just snapped the reciever clean in half on the last knockings of putting it back together. Ping. Feck. My YouTube history goes like this:: M14 gearbox M14 switch assembly M14 why did I do it? M14 screws like wtf? M14 working M oh that's enough Whale music Welding pot metal ??????? Tis a rollercoaster of a ride. DanBow, Nick G and Enid_Puceflange 3
DanBow Posted December 9, 2023 Posted December 9, 2023 I feel your pain but I'm thinking I need to get myself a boneyard something just to take apart! Just to see how it works and to see if I can make it better. lol

Only sometimes you just have to suck it up and spend more on parts than buying a new one! ?? DanBow 1
Egon_247 Posted December 19, 2023 Author Posted December 19, 2023 Well....JB weld to the rescue. Never used JB before -ive used loads of 2 part epoxy resin types just not this one - and so far she's holding up. Got some bits coming from a lovely guy on here so hopefully she'll be ready to try out soon....
