Yes, I finally acquired one. Soooooo happy.
Took it apart today, cleaned and restored everything. Polished the metal, cleaned the housings, soaked the bearings in penetrating lube (they now spin with a buttery smoothefficient spin), repinned the connectors, reflowed the solder, and cleaned the original spinner top (however, I will be replacing the spinner top with a repro, and keeping the original as a spare).
One issue however is that the 4 screws that hold the two halfs of the red housing together were missing. Does anyone know what type of screw and size they are? This is why you see the zip ties holding the halves together
