This thing is 15 years old. It just dawned on me, they need cleaning and lubing. Oops.
I took it apart and cleaned it and greased it with this clipper grease I had laying around. Tube was still good after the same 15 years.
Wow! I forgot how smooth it runs.
I need to buy a new “000” blade. I’ll hit up a barber supply place. I hope this thing goes forever. It should, it only cuts my hair. Call it “light duty “.
(And it’s USA made)
