You're gonna need a new friction drive wheel. That one is in pretty bad shape. You can remove the rubber and replace it with a section of rubber hose. I did that with a piece of transparent tubing from a hardware store on one of my extra drive wheels.

YES, I had forgotten OD. I still have my dad's OD raincoat that he wore in the Marines. I was thinking about you when I was turning the hand wheel and it was going clunkity clunk. It has more than one flat spots on the friction drive wheel. Check out the vintage safety pins that came with the cord. I do have a slide plate that I can rob from one of my other White Rotary machines. And I think I do have a extra cabinet the machine will fit in. Gotta test that. It is such a cool butt ugly machine I may take it to my OSMG to rewire. He just loves my oddball machines (sort of grumps at me because he is a Singer guy).
