Steve, question about time outs. How long should they take before one might presumably expect to see movement? Got a stuck screw - used time out, heat from hair dryer, tri-flow and not had any luck yet. Not even any movement. Swear words plus alcohol (for me) did not improve the situation but did make me feel better! Okay, I cared less which equals better with this machine.

Well it is still stuck. But I do see movement and a brownish tinge so maybe it is dirt and rust. I have soaked with tri flow top and bottom and I will let it soak overnight and try again tomorrow

But, it was made in the 1860's and well, if it took decades upon decades to seize up, it seems pretty silly for me to expect instant release.

Thanks for the information. She'll stay in timeout then. Have named her Josephine after my grandmother. She too could make me swear and drink. ;)
