Could a mechanical halfwit like me re-shell an ERST?

Or should I just buy a mint standard one then transfer the better bits off mine onto it?

How easy do you think it'd be? You take everything off your shell, then you put it all back on a new one....... It's a job and a half....

Do you have enough space and the right tools for the job?

Need more space and tools than that.

Basically, as long as one of you has an idea, it will be fine. Just dont rush it is the best advice I can offer.
