Model M bolt mod disapointment
« on: Thu, 17 May 2012, 16:04:17 »
I pulled my model M apart. I was pretty careful, used an exacto chisel blade for the rivets.

This is what I found when I got it apart.

Any thoughts on what to do about it or if its usable?

There are several posts regarding fixing cracks in the barrel plate (I think it is called a "frame" by Unicomp) using various techniques involving epoxy.

Unicomp will sell you a new one pretty cheap, too.

Not the end of the world. Cheer up

Cognitive distortions are patterns of thought, typically automatic and unconscious, that cause an inaccurate, negative view of situations, people, and/or events. These include things like jumping to conclusions; black-and-white thinking; negative mental filtering; overgeneralizing; mindreading (incorrectly believing we know what others are thinking, what their motives are); and emotional reasoning (believing that if we are feeling something, or if what we are thinking is associated with a strong emotion, it must be true).
