I recently aquired this machine from a farm clearance sale in a very poor state. It was covered in countless years of grease and red dirt and very solidly seized. I had some doubt as to this machine being able to be brought back to working condition. Many hours of tedious scraping and coaxing, the machine is now like brand new and in working order. Should anyone wish to contact me regarding this machine and its approximate age, I would be more than happy, this is my first machine and certainly not the last, I'm hooked.
