WRRS Mini Bell with Brass gong Repaired and working better
Here is my WRRS mini bell with the brass gong, boy was it not working properly, much was bent out of shape and botched, I heated the components with a torch and put the mechanism back together properly without the incorrect pieces that were added. This bell took a plunge at some time in its career and was crudely repaired by a maintainer. It is now restored to proper working order.
Enjoy
Mike

Cool. :)
That's exactly what a guy in the shop would have done, clean it up, do what
it takes to make the thing work good, paint it up and send it back out. :)
Bells didn't take any instruction but I'd always try to get the book anyway.
Don't know what you are going to find, until you look. ;)
