I bought this from a widow in April of 2020. It was her late husband's who was a DIY woodworker and had bought it new. She let it go for $85 and said it had been sitting in their garage for close to 30 years without being touched. It came with the original Skil Oil. I did a complete disassembly, cleaning, and re-lube. The bearings, worm, and worm gear looked brand new. After I reassembled it, I just cleaned up the outside with light oil and "0000" steel wool.
