[Hammarlund] WTB: Control shaft for clock on a HQ145 (Doug DeWeese)

[D C _Mac_ Macdonald]

1/4" diameter fiber shafts are availble "somewhere" 
such as hobby shop. 
 
Drill (or have drilled) the correct size pilot hole for 
the thread on the clock shaft, cut to correct length, 
put a lock nut on the clock shaft, install the shaft, 
put case back on (carefully), install knob on shaft.

> I made a clock control shaft for a HQ 170 from a dowel stick that I bought at Michaels for about 50 cents. I cut it to length, drilled a small hole for the clock shaft, tapered the external part and painted it grey. I secured it with a little epoxy (JB Weld). If you are a purist, this repair is not for you, but it worked fine for me.
