Picked up this Druckzunder 35a.

And was pleasantly surprised that its almost 100% strippable. The only bits i cant get out is the striker and the ball bearing in that retains the pin

I have since put a ring on the pin, and cut a 90degree section out of the body, but havent touched the inner workings.

Its a nicely engineered device, im going to see if i can get some felt and a cap to complete it totally. Unfortunaley the prior owner had wire brushed it to remove the brown coating, leaving its semi brown and scratched, so i boiled it in bicarbonate of soda which brought it back to shiny aluminium as it looked a bit of a lash job before.......

Show pics of the cut.

here you go, its exceptionally basic, just the outer part. Im debating doing a more detailed, deeper cut but im in the middle of a mills section so it can wait a bit whilst i finish that

I think it is enough for show the basic mech. Good work.

yeah thats what im thinking, its not the largest piece and it could be easily ruined. its still fully strippable so i can take it apart if someone wanted me to
