you'll be surprised at how simple the engineering on these antique machines is. google/web/youtube is your friend. i started from nothing and learning a lot especially from the members here. i am mostly at awed everytime i see an antiques machines and see the inside - an 80 years or more old machine yet so pristine and will keep on running for another 100 years or so. you will be able to do it too, trust me. you just need to have patience and the right tools and the persistency to bug all the members here.
