Well folks I hope you enjoy, I know there’s no windup (My mistake of totally not filming at the start). Considering this unit is around 70 years old with no known rebuild or refurbisheshment and ran every week for at times up to 6 minutes I’m not surprised how horribly it sounds. Seems to me a bearing issue.
