17A Restoration

After purchasing a rather savable 17A from dugup
i decided to have a go and strip restore and get myself
a Ticking 17 for the collection.
This is after basic outside cleaning and removal of
three retaining screws for top.

I made a set of mini chisels and highlighted some of the stampings
on the fuse head.
