You could try a left handed drill. A left hand drill will unwind the screw once it starts to cut. I have used LH drills sucessfully in the past.

I did take measurements of the sticker (font size etc.) & a photo of a larger CS sticker for scanning so they coulkd make some repro's. I don't know if they ever got made though.

I have a few old Laser speed controls that need stickers.

How did you purchase from him, via his ebay listings or?

Sweet motor, the stands are suprisingly good for displaying motors considering they're meant for Lighters.

Yes, I got the CS on UK ebay.

Yes, I have an esprit E-S Ultimate 2 in my Graphite Team car & it is a full modified with ball bearings & adjustable timing.

Great build. Where did you find that CS speedo?

It was an ebay find, I was the only bidder & it was NIP.

Well I found one on two separate occasions here in the UK, maybe I was lucky but I found them by chance.

I have mine displayed like this, pretty simple setup, zippo lighter stands and perspex shelving. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52696091102_0bb0e55dca_k.jpg I know this is a motor display thread, but is there a build thread on that Schumacher? :D Unfortunately not although I did enter it in th...

Congrats, this is definitely a nice display. Are the motor stands homemade or available somewhere? I like the angled presentation more but have not found something so far for this task. Thanks, yes they can be found on ebay, usually from China & prices vary. Here's an example. https://www.ebay....

I do like the original green label Ultra Reedy motors but I guess my favourite is the Schumacher Reedy I had back in 87 in my CAT SWB. I actually have two of these now. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52703558510_51d455568f_k.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52702619142_c9f93f80e0_k.jpg

But I wonder why it is actually tech talk between us and no other guys involved. I know there have been interest before. And Demon motors had been very popular in Europe. So guys come on and post your motors and knowledge. Or questions. I used Demon motors back in the 80's, I have about a dozen now...

I have one, an MG Red Dot + and you're right, no Demon on the endbell.

OK, I didn't realise he didn't have a shop, assumed he sold other manufacturers products. If not then the sticker would mean he reworked the motor.

Incindentally, I recently got a Phil Greeno modified which is a relabelled Demon.
