Well now I know why this frame was so cheap on ebay.  It's got 2 or 3 screws that are snapped off and cored into the frame.m anybody here good at drilling them out and tapping the holes?  I have had success with sand blasting off the anodizing and baking on wheeler ceramacoat on another frame and want to save this one to do it again.

If nobody here close by. A local machine shop can handle that easily.

what i've been doing lately is to hit it with a torch, then spray "freeze off" and it's worked in quite a few cases.
send me an email at alantani@yahoo.com for questions!

Tom,
Where are you?
My little brother has a full up machine shop.
There is nothing like lying flat on your back on the deck, alone except for the helmsman aft at the wheel, silence except for the lapping of the sea against the side of the ship. At that time you can be equal to Ulysses and brother to him.
