The bushing is looking good. It's a good sliding fit on the shaft. Now I
need a 7/16' bit. I thought I might have one but no joy. It's about the
same thickness as the fingers. I'll probably have to shorten it since
the drill won't go as deep as original and a hack saw or dremel will
take care of the slots. I'm going to try some Permatex epoxy I have on
hand I used for the filter repair. If the glue holds, it will be better
than the pot metal for the fingers. I found the hss bit on ebay for
less than $5 delivered. So total of less than $10 plus my time which
must be at about $3000 by now.
