[ARC5] worn dyno commutator

[Leslie Smith]

  Hello Jim,

  That naughty fellow Mike Hanz has been repairing things again -
  specifically dynos.
  Visit www.aafradio.org.   This is "AAF-radio" not "A-afraid-i-o".

  Then follow the link to restoration center and then dynamotor
  maintenance.


  Oh, does your dyno look as bad as the one in Mike's photo?

   (I hope not!)  

  As for repair, Mike obviously knows a good repair shop, because he has
  a 'before' and 'after' photo.  Maybe you can make your dyno look as
  good as his!

  P.S.  I think this fellow, Mike Hanz, is having an April fool's joke
        with me!  It's not the same dyno!  Look at the two photos!  The
        first dyno (the rusty one) is quite small compared with the much
        larger dyno in the lathe!  No-one could make the rusty hulk look
        like the dyno in the second photo!   I have another explanation.
        Today is April 6th and that's only a few days after April 1.
        Oh, oh, oh!  You got me there, Mike!


But take heart Jim.  In the very first paragraph Mike says he's been
saddled with every-one's dyno problems (and I quote):  ".. somehow I’ve
ended up saddled with everyone’s dynamotor problems .."  By this I think
Mike means you should send him YOUR dynamotor!!  HA!


HA?  (You didn't think that was funny?  Aw - you ruined my day)



                        o-o-o
