Hello Brian,
Very nicely done, both the job you did on your dividing head, and the documentation on this thread.
I actually joined this forum because of this thread. I plan on staying for much more though. I believe I just bought the same DH for $40. Although it is missing a lot. I has no plates, or the crank handle, and is missing most, if not all of the auxiliary gear drive. I'll post a photo, when I get a chance.
Can you tell me, did you hot tank yours when you got it apart? Or did you soak it in something? I saw your mention of Varsol, and the maroon pad, and putty knife. But that casting looks perfect. If your did soak it, can you tell me specifically what parts you soaked?
