A Snell "Angular" Boring Machine.

After a thorough but gentle cleaning and an applied a coat of Boiled Linseed Oil. I am awed at how nice this machine is. It has had VERY LITTLE use for a 130 year old machine. Note the Makers Mark on the Base. Some WD-40 and a toothbrush was all I used for the shiny metal parts. The black surfaces were lightly coated with BLO as was the wooden frame after cleaning. Before and After Pictures are below.

This will be an escellent addition to my other Snell listed here.
