I'm sure someday I'll be able to quote Horlers' "OSM" the some can quote the
Bible, but on pg 71, the first entry for Dec '61 "Rev counter drive gearbox
changed. Large brass nut replaced with a knurled nut to prevent
overtightening". Every one of the things I've seen so far the knurled nut has
been knarled up with a pliers, so much for overtightening.......:-/
