^^^^^^ Well done. I'm quite pleased that FWs no longer intimidate me. They're easy and quite satisfying when you restore them. I've found that actual wear is from use is rare. It's grit, ancient dried grease and a bit of water that's the problem, easily resolved. If done carefully, they don't even "asplode". BTW, I like those caged bearing assemblies. Nice design.
