Comments:

During some repairs, I took photos of the internal workings to show what the machine is made of. The main body is an aluminum casting with most of the intermal workings of aluminum. The motor housing is held on by five sheet metal screws that go into the slide-on screw clips. The back sheet metal cover is held on by two sheet metal screws. A small Reeves-style drive varies the speeds. The motor is a c-frame type.
