Zero adjuster gizmo.  Shown clearly in the nice photo in my 1956 Army
tech manual.

Special fluids are an option.  May have to crack that snooty French St.
Remy lubricating fluid....

Just various and sundry running about town that I needed to do, along
with _finally taking in the matinee of 'Attack of the Clones'.  (Funny,
