I have no experience with replacing the board, but may I ask why it needs replaced on such a "newish" machine compared to our '79 F2? Just curious is all, have a feeling our machine is on "borrowed" time

| I'm not so much familiar with F series, but if the center board on them is oak like on L/M series, I used to make them out of a piece of oak from the local lumber yard. Darrel |

We replaced one in the L3 last winter. Two guys works best to remove and reinstall the elevator. We took our worn out center board to local cabinet maker. He made a perfect match, bolt holes and all.
