In any event I did get them adjusted obviously and should be fine for many years. It was a fun project and I am happy with the results. Now that everything is running correctly the new to me 1641 will get much seat time as it will now be my go to cutter. This will give the 126 a break and it will be coming into the shop for refurbishment once the 100 is finished.
sorry coop, I shouldn't of derailed your repair post, It has been deleted.
