Ed, I don't know about the purring, but I do hope to get it so that its useable. But its actually more of a time killer than anything else plus I get to mess around with molten metal while trying to fix the broken/missing parts.
one thing I didn't think of till after I had the ratchet made and installed was the steel pin inside the aluminum ratchet housing and corrosion, so guess I'll have to put in a lube point. But thinking about it I can just let a couple drops run down the rod by pulling the knob up when I get it made and installed.
