Faema frame reassembly
I was finally able to finish tearing the frame apart, drilling out all the rivets in it. I’ve stripped them and primed them with etching primer and finally given them a matte black finish. I decided to rivet it all back together with stainless steel rivets, preventing future rust…it is, after all, an espresso machine. I had to buy a heavy-duty rivet gun to manage the stainless steel rivets, but it made things so much easier. The reassembled frame looks a lot better, right?
