This is a very cool action. I'd love to see it cleaned up and a few different angles of photo. Repetition spring is pulling down on the jack somehow, so it seems there must be a cord on the jack, or maybe the spring has a right-angle hook on the end connected to a hole in a knob at the lower front corner of the jack? Need a different picture angle. Looks like there are wippen helper springs at the back, screw adjustable. The letoff screws are in an awkward spot to regulate, and also risk noise when the hammer line settles down. It looks like the knuckle / jack interface would just be meeting the spread line at letoff, so yes, it seems that the friction at letoff would be very low. Not always a good thing - too little is as bad as too much, I think. It would be fun to regulate this action, see what it can do. But first, I really want to get a vacuum with HEPA filter running on that thing . . . . Thanks for posting this. It's a new one on me, too.
