lovin this thread... this is where my back ground lies-engineering. I'd have a bash, but I blew the motor up on my bench drill, but can't find anywhere to repair it down in south Oxfordshire. I so want to re create the Hutch stem on the 83 Pro Star.

Whats up with the motor captain? I knew a lad who got one fixed at a alternator renovating place.

Try these bro. Speak to Mick Robson or Devon Francis and say Terry has put you onto them. I used to rewind motors for them back in the 90's

no idea on make of drill or motor... used to belong to my ex girlfriend's dad.. keen to get it sorted, as I know this sucker is sooo accurate(he's a tool maker)

oldschoolace · « **Reply #60 on:** January 29, 2014, 09:32 PM »

If its anyway half decent ( unlike my B&Q special

) its worth getting sorted properly.
Looks like Terry has come up with the goods once again

HUTCHMAN · « **Reply #61 on:** January 29, 2014, 09:42 PM »

WELL worth sorting. Lets put it this way.. if you google "joseph merlin band clock".. he made one of these on it... won 1st @ the model engineers exhibition back in the late 80's
