G'day Dan
Many thanks for the update and photos.
I feel competent engineering (that you clearly have) show a way
forward in preserving older machines - where parts are not available, or
are not readily available, or are too expensive for the re-sale value of the machine.
You will end up with a nice little runner and cutter.
