[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 850508, member: 243342"] Yeah, that's what I was looking for. I was thinking some sort of spray paint..something like Kurust or something. Will protect the rod (kinda) and add more leverage. I am quite annoyed with jack arms though. Even my new proper SuperJack one last year had a bit of play in it - surely this shouldn't be acceptable. The big one that's currently on the back of the dish is a 36" one (, after finding the label that hasn't faded. Took the motor box off and inside it's pristine - mainly because it's protected by the rubber clarinet hose thing. The bearing is also OK but there's still play in it - again, I am guessing on the nut/rod.... Wonder if a nice heavy duty 24" one will be better? SSS have a nice 1224 motor for sale... for £300... :eek: [/QUOTE]
