Miele brand Goose-neck for the Teledyne -- taking out the scratches on the top


The goose-neck has a scratched-up area on the top.  Also, the rubber gasket is stretched and torn.

Not the clearest picture but the area is pretty scratched.


Trimmed the rubber gasket to the actual shape of the interface.  Looks pretty clean and nice.  Also started cleaning up the scratches by using a fine file.

After more repeated filing.

Still some more filing (there's still pits in the area).

After filing is done.,,

Used 1,000 grit wed/dry sand paper to get a fine finish.

Last step was using fine steel wool to make the repaired area blend in better with the surrounding area.
