Default Lucas K2F magneto coil rewind

Not rollpin , a matter of removing the ballrace and underlying steel rings
and spacer from the brass section marked BR on

requiring making up an extractor as standard pullers have no ledge to
purchase on.
The 2 long screws go the length of the steel pieces like an electric drill
housing. Marked the orientation before removing the end cap. Yes the HT wire
marked W just pushes into the boss of the paxolin pulley shown in the third
pic. An excellent site for damp ingress , via capillary action, into the
body of the coil (my excavations exploring how deep the cloth covering was).
Green corrosion on the HT wire is more obvious in the original high
resolution pic, evidencing dampness at the end of the HT sleeving.

the capacitor is the square lump covered in greasy mess in the end cap

the paxolin pulley-like section that goes on the brass axis at W position.
