You can do pretty much anything. :) It just depends on how much work you want to do and how much money you have. :D I would want to either remove (chop off) that blower shaft or put a guard over it. As a farmer exposed spinning shafts make me very nervous. I personally know enough seriously injured...

Seems feasible! Wonder about the idler shaft.

Another exercise on the do someday list

I thought for sure you would have spotted that first! The ability to convert to a Mark 5 changer seems to be a huge perk! No more chasing down aluminium speed changers!

I had e-mailed him. He said it is a repaint, the vacuum has been removed and the speed changer has been replaced with a standard mark 5 speed changer. I didn't know you could do that!

Hmmm I didn't see that in the listing. Did you call on it or is it obvious in the picture?

I know Mark 2's have their drawbacks, but this one looks nice and clean for anyone looking for one to complete a collection!

Thanks for the replies guys!

I was wondering if evaporust is ok to use on nylon locknuts. I was disassembling a big tube tunnel slide to clean and would like to derust the 100 or so screws, washers and nuts. Thanks for any input!

I have always wanted an anniversary model but don't have the extra cash right now. I figured someone might like it.

Just think of all the free time you will have once she is settled into her new room!
