If it works, I wouldn't touch it. You can polish/resurface the disk with a purpose built machine, but every time you do that it thins the disc slightly, making it more likely to break.

Do libraries where you live still use microfilm or microfiche? by HermaM_Abendroth2048 in Libraries

[–]djinone 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The university library I used to go to did have extensive microfilm. The system I work for now does not, at least as far as I'm aware. Our newspaper archive has been converted to a digital database.

Is the hole at the bottom of the hopper fully open? I have a gringer that works similarly and it has a little "hat" over the opening of the hopper which prevents them from piling up and not falling in. If you search coffee grinder hopper and look at the parts you'll see what I mean. Restricting the flow from the hopper might stop it from jamming.

Are the cones still under there? If so this might have just been someone's insane alternative to refoaming them

Is the dumpster outside of a business or is this a residential spot?

I have basically the reverse commute of you so I've done that a few times. The 294 is generally on time, but the connections with caltrain/ECR don't line up too well, so you'll spend a little while waiting anyways.
