I had another of these that roared back into life very well, so purloined this one from Rod Padrick in 2004(?) The electro-bath did its number and it got a new coat of paint, bearings, lube, switch and wires and Bob was his uncle. It has stayed a bench top and resides currently in my joint in MT.

OOOps looks like I got sawdust (drill dust ?) all over this one too.
