i have a somewhat large split deck semi centennial stand
its casters squeek and aren't much fun
the woodwork needs to be sanded and refinished ( its missing the plate holder )
the bed needs to be lubricated so it isn't as stiff to open and close and the counterbalance spring needs lubrication ( and a KEY ! )
does anyone have suggestions on how to go about lubricating wood to make it slide better, and re-vulcanizing casters ?
i'd rather not put new casters on it and i am never sure if it is oil or wax or what kind of either i should use to make this gem of a tool work like new again. and the counterbalance .. do you oil long flat spiral springs like that and are the keys to tension the spring
a standard size? i've been using the shaft of a large screwdriver, when i need to, but i'd rather get the real-deal.
any suggestions ?
thanks in advance !
