In that order. I can't explain the presence of > iron shavings in the vicinity, in this case. Anyone else? (fx: crickets > chirping) Chirp - Chirp.. :) .. My take is that either something has lodged or been dumped/left in the greater assembly, the pressure plate has started to hit something in the case or one of several bits are not in straight and are turning on the stub.. You really need to take it apart and track it down. Brother Dave is probably correct through, aluminum makes shavings - steel makes chips - iron makes dust (you know, like usually). -- J Dexter - webmaster - http://www.dexterdyne.org/ all tunes - no cookies no subscription no weather no ads no news no phone in - RealAudio 8+ Required - all the Time Radio Free Dexterdyne Top Tune o'be-do-da-day Mr Louis Jordan - Let The Good Times Roll http://www.dexterdyne.org/888/190.RAM
