Your excitedness toward your 147 is starting to infect me Jackie. I might 
have to start working on mine!

I currently have the mech out of my machine. After the dome is off it was a 
straight forward process. The mech is mostly aluminum or pot metal, it 
really is not that heavy (once all the 78 rpm records are out). I think 
there is just 4 screws on top, a couple of side brackets, the selector rod, 
and wiring.

Before I removed my mech I positioned it so the turntable was partly raised. 
This way I could set the mech on the floor in a upright position and nothing 
would be damaged.
