I purchased this machine approx 1992.When I bought it,it was painted a dark machinery grey and was mounted on a wood stand.The only thing I did when I got it home was to remove the drive box.I was curious to see how the air pump worked.The internal parts were just like new.Installed fresh oil and put it to work.
I left it in the condition I bought it up until 2015.During restoration I found the original paint was a wrinkle black ..next a layer of light machinery grey was applied..then a layer of dark machinery grey was applied.After stripping all paint and glass beading all parts,I applied a etching primer and top coat of Plasti-kote satin black wrinkle paint.
Over the years I was lucky and acquired the proper legs for the stand and in 2015 the proper cover for the belt.
I made up some more ..USER FRIENDLY..blade holders and installed a LED work light.The wood used for the stand was cherry and trim was walnut.
