This lantern pinion had a couple of bent trundles after a main spring explosion. I bought a wire pack from Timesavers. The trundles are .040" and the wire in the pack contains .0385" or .045". I know that I can get .040" but I would like to get this one back together and running again. Should I use the .0385 or wait another 10 days or so for .040" wire.
The second picture shows the new .0385" wire in the trundle closest to you.
Should the trundles rotate? I believe they should but some don't. Is any lube require here?
Any ideas on the shape of the punch that I will need to make to close over the top of the holes. A narrow flat edge?
Cheers
Greg
