I shall run 6.EX without the Dampers until you send me some fresh materials for firction surfaces. I think rivet fibre, or raybestos without sticky make-up, or resin to outer plates using hollow rivets so as to prevent the materials getting down on to inner drum, greasing arrangements quite inadequate or awkward.
