Fully restored:
Fully restored. Main frame fully stripped and re-painted. Chuck
disassembled, cleaned inside and out. All inside surfaces
polished, including jaws – for smooth operation. All gear tight
and smooth. Side and crank handle sanded, re-stained with red
mahogany and painted with 3 layers of lacquer. Main handle
sanded and treated with BLO and wax. Originally the
handles from this time period were lacquered with reddish lacquer.
I decided to leave natural wood treated with wax.
Super nice! Great addition to your toolbox. Lovely Tool!
Ready for work.
