Why wait? This Sunday simply use a cleaning disk if that truly is the problem, and fix it? I don't think you need a workshop for that.
I'm not proposing a special workshop. Just saying that we might as well go through all of our 1541s in one batch, and during the next workshop is a good time to do it (especially if I have questions). Frankly it will be a good learning experience for me since I'm much less experienced at vintage tech repair than most of you. Ian showed me some drive head cleaning basics a couple of workshops ago and I am pretty good at fixing stuff in general that's more mechanical than electronic.
