R rov6 New Member Jan 12, 2019 #22 Got it. So still on plan 'a' .. get the bits out, putting it back together with a new case (and some new bolts) and seeing how it works. Thanks

H harveyp6 Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2019 #23 Sounds good. The bits left in there should come out quite easily as they were working their way out anyway.
