One of the cone winders broke down the other day, throwing one of its chains. After a few million revolutions, things tend to go a little slack sometimes.
Thankfully, these machines are pretty easy to fix. I just pulled it apart, put the chain back where it belonged, and tightened up the rest of the mechanisms.
While I was in there, I noticed that one of the springs looked and felt a little stretched. I'll replace that soon and the machine should be good to go for another thousand cones or so.

I have the same cone winder, so far, it works great. It is a little loud, but other than that, it works well.
Yeah, it is kind of loud, especially with two running at once, but it does the trick quickly and reliably!
