Dear Janice "otherwise NOTW" (not of this world?),
The innards, now that you mention it, seem okay; the worst of the damage is external. But it's probably too late now. I've got most of the external bits taken apart. I want to clean them; they're so crummy looking. And a fair amount of rust. I'm documenting the process overall in another topic.
Handwheel is still stuck.
ndnchf -- mmm.... where in virginia are you? I'm just across the potomac near Glen Echo park outside of DC.
I'll go looking tomorrow for the supplies you mention.
Thanks everyone. This is quite an adventure.
