October 31 I am going to Ithaca, NY for a week long repair class taught by Ray White.  I am thrilled.  This machine is going along for sure.

The back ground sign says NO FRACKING, as in hydraulic

I was pondering how I could ever get at the switch connection to de solder and then re solder this.  Then it dawned on me.  The switch might have a little nut that loosens.

It's a project, as Steven would say, with a sigh.   It's a project, I would say, with gusto.

All that gunk is liquified wire insulation that reacted with oil and time.  I have three 201s and one has intact, though "dicey" wiring.  The third one looks just like this but I think the switch is a bit better, but I am not sure that is saying much.
