Hi BB,
Can you please post a pic of the catcher in question, I'm not sure what you mean.... confused

Re: A full restoration of a Model 17 "Supercut", no BB, I think you will be the pioneer here, I do not know of another...and your resto will make a brilliant archive here at ODK. Please make sure you take plenty of pics as you go along...this will be invaluable for anyone in the future contemplating to do the same...or just perhaps disassembling the machine for repairs. wink
cheers
