201-3 Transformation continued

When working on these old sewing machines, I find that patience really pays off.  Some screws are tight and will not budge.  My favorite penetrant is acetone mixed with ATF fluid.  It is very stinky and I am forbidden to use it in the winter.  Something about my liver,  my brain, my lungs.  Betsy has admonished me to never use it inside.  I love her so I will obey. (No, that is not a wedding vow.)

With the 201-3 I simply used some Tri-Flow Superior lubricant and applied heat and then waited. 

When I thought it was "ripe" I used my Chapman screw driver bit being very careful to hold the driver as vertically as I could.  Then applying downward pressure I turned left.  (Not hard to do since I am practically a socialist, believing in universal Health Care and all)

I felt just the slightest give and then it freed up.
