Squeaky


I'm finishing up Mr. Winkle for a client. After I assembled the eyes and temporarily installed them in the head, they squeaked when moving side-to-side in one direction. So pulled them out, took them apart, cleaned the parts and enlarged the offending axle hole. I reassembled them.

Side-to-side, no squeak.

I re-installed them in the head. Side-to-side, no squeak.

I attached the triggers to the headstick.  I attached the cords to the eyes' synchro bar and to the rocker trigger.

Side-to-side, SQUEAK!

F%$&*#K! I hope WD-40 works!
