      I'll go dig into the Corner From Hell in my shop , there's a blower   
   down there somewhere . If this one of yours is what I think it is you'll   
   end up fabricating a nes crank shaft and bushing the case . Gears may   
   need some buildup/re-cutting if it's got a lot of hours .

   It seems to be in pretty good condition except that something chatters and   
   increases resistance when it turns fast. The gears look good and have little   
   backlash, which I checked before buying it. It may need only the fan shaft   
   bicycle-type ball bearings snugged up, that's reportedly a wear area and has   
   a takeup screw. Others wrote that disassembly needs special tools that can   
   be made on a lathe, if you have one. Maybe the previous owner didn't, I   
   think the artistic blacksmithing ethic precludes them. If I can get ahead on   
   my monthly 10GB data allowance I'll look at some videos.   
      
   Personally I feel that text and line drawings can be more informative than   
   most of the how-to videos I've seen. Maybe that's because I've had training   
   and job experience as a draftsman. Haynes and Chiltons car repair manuals   
   use photos, the factory manuals have drawings.
