Nice...!
Here I am trying to resurrect a shabby chummy and you tempt me with a photo of all that polished shiny goodness!
So it looks like we have two camps of thought 1) clean them up, reinforce, weld and redrill etc. and 2) find some replacements fit them and move on.
It’s time versus money and patina versus perfection....
While contemplating this can anyone offer advice for a source of replacement radius arms?
Do any on the regular suppliers, cherished or otherwise, make them new, or reconditioned?
Any suppliers in Australia, or am I heading to the motherland for these?
Anyone know of a nice pair collecting dust in the back a shed somewhere?
