Hi Bluegmhtmonaro and ODK members,

This is another stunning restoration.
I have come upon this one late, but I do understand the Frankenstein ref.
Of course, Frankenstein was the doctor - not the monster ... so that's a good sign crazy

Mal, could you tell me the width of cut of this machine?
I say this because it is possible that this machine is a F61,
assuming that the short motor is the original red.
[This would mean that the cowl would be easy to find].

If you're going for the trip-release starter, then the drum in the pic. would be incorrect.
You would require the drum with less teeth.

May I also say that this is not an un-hansome machine. It's no monster ... now.
You have, like a fine surgeon, brought this machine back to life.
A few more bits and it will be ALIVE![no electrical storm needed].

p.s. this base is a very good one. I love the twin crank arms connecting
the head to the torso. on the height adjuster. A very close version of this base
was used on the very rare Australian Qualcast rotary of this period.
Qualcast didn't copy Turner: they both used the same supplier.

Great Work Mal. Or is it ... Herr Doktor [insert lightning here].

All very monstrous.
