hi John,
to see the gubbins I would have to take the machine apart which I'm not sure I want to do until I know I can commit to this project (i.e if im gonna break something, I want to be sure I have a project in place to fix it / ammend it!) But if need be I will take the machine apart to see the gubbins as i'm pretty enthused about the project (or I could send via pm the product links and any pictures required... this is a project of a mature nature so I don't really want to publicly post images of the product in case any kids use this forum)
The machine was built for use in Europe I believe, I have a socket adaptor to run it from UK mains if that helps?
