I don't actually know what speed the drill is running at, it just has incremental numbers; I have it turned up to 11!  ;)

I can't believe how cheap laser tachometers are; I think I might invest one

Nearing the end of this restoration, all parts have been cleaned and painted where necessary and even the old black gunk has been replaced with new black gunk in the form of silicon sealant - it looks like it'll do the job
