So now that my DR-1 compressor is welded shut I am working on getting the rest of it ready to go back together. The control is in pretty rough shape and required a complete disassembly. We will start with the tear down video. youtu.be/ZKWfbFEk8lw |

I might have gone a bit OCD on this control lol. I now have all the metal marts de rusted and 80 of them nickel plated. I found 2 more screws after I thought I was done at 78 parts. I needed to be sure it had good clean connections so I don't hurt my newly wound motor. Some have already told me to make it a glass cover. Here is a video of cleaning and plating the parts. youtu.be/k_10fFXDup8 |

I vote for the glass cover so that you can see the blue arcs and all of those shiny parts!

After all that work it would be shame to hide it under a cover. Maybe something out of plexiglass don’t know how you could make it out of glass . Unless you cut square
prices and glued them together. But it sure would be cool to look at!

But it sure would be cool to look at! I am not sure what I am doing for a clear cover yet. If the cover only had square corners, but it doesn't. I will come up with something I am sure! Its all back together now and looks so much better. It should I have about 3 days time in it. Here is the video of the reassembly. youtu.be/8lpiDn4GL-k |
