Had the box indoors and a lot of the paint was flaking off and missing from old age so after removing the gear I scrapped off the rest of the paint with a blade
I'm not sure if I'm going to repaint this, or just keep the surface wiped over with an oily rag and screw the plates back on,
Same with the rest of the machine, it's the wrong time of year to paint anything outside now
Box is ready and waiting now for the new metric gear and new gasket
Gear has to be made and is a 3-4 week turn around so hopefully before Xmas
