Hi dramapig, and a warm welcome to the forum. It's always great to welcome another Scott Bonnar owner on board, as we all like to learn new things and tinker here! grin

Instructions for posting pics can be found HERE

Instructions for removing the cylinder reel and soleplate can be found HERE

The best way to find a good engineer/machinist to sharpen your reel and bedknife, is to contact your nearest Lawn Bowling club, speak to the greenskeeper and find out who sharpens their reels....Greenskeepers are usually a friendly bunch who will help you. wink

Looking forward to seeing the pics of your Scotty, once again.... :welcome: to OutdoorKing.
cheers
