I once tinned a slightly worn SU throttle shaft with solder and lapped it into.the housing with jewlers rouge. Good for when they are just starting to get too much slop.

I used John Deere satin black in my morrie, like 15 years ago. It's still on, still satin, still black. I haven't noticed any particularly gloss parts, but I probably only wash the dust off once a year

Did some more Useful for dialing in the scanner, screen, and printer colur correction. Directly scanned and printed was coming out way too dark for whatever reason (maybe the 1998 scanner) -
Made a brass dome out of an old solex carb float And fitted with a file tapered pin made from a microdrill shank. Nice tight fit. Clock has been ticking away happily the last few days, with no hands, so will see how it goes now. If the hands don't interfere with each other all good, otherwise might need to space the minute hand up with a tiny shim. Then il go about getting it in time, probably paint that brass bit black to match the hands. And that's it, lovely old 8 day kitchen clock back in service, fixed with junk laying around my shed as is my usual turd polishing way

Made a new one From what I can see online, the minute hand is held on by a threaded cap. Mine has a square shaft with no threads, but does have a hole drilled through it (which probably hints as to what year it was made) This is, or was common on clocks, there will be a cupped washer which will press down over the hand, then with some tension on it you poke a rod through the hole and it all holds together
