Elektra Microcasa badge

Hi! This one is for both Microcasa - Semiautomatica and Leva.

When I rebuilt the Semi I removed the badge as the base was rusting specially all around every button and the badge. I've noticed that is normal to spill some coffee out the base and these corners catch some liquid. The Semi was in very bad care and the coffee even removed the chrome.

Today I removed the badge of the Leva as well. There was some coffee trapped there too, so now I can clean it and put it back with 3mm screws and lock nuts as I've done to Semi. Some pictures:

A 3mm drill did the job. The Semi is like that after some 4 months, time to clean it:

Márcio.
