If you need any additional guidance making the mod, I will be glad to assist with what ever information I can provide. Good Luck. I know this will work, because it worked very well for me. A lot will depend on the skill of your craftsmanship. But with the right tools and materials, it is easily done.

One tip, if the brass shim stock fits to loose between the bakelite body and the resistance element, make the brass strip longer and double the thickness where it makes contact with the resistance element. Or possibly use thicker shim stock. The idea is to get a nice snug/tight fit so the shim stock makes good contact.
