Ok, I added another photo to the set - the last photo is from the
tear-down phase, and it looks like the motor is mounted the same way
as I have it now.
Honestly, I think my brain is cramping up, I can't figure out how to
mount the arms to the body.
Maybe with a night of sleep it will make sense later.....
One step forward, two steps back - the world of restorations, huh?
thanks all
