That looks great. Nice restoration work. Looking at these pics, with all the inner workings and gears, makes me think of the day I spent at the Smithsonian American History Museum. Looking at steam engines, old machines, compressors, farm equipment, etc. the whole day and the thought "how did someone ever come up with THAT" kept running through my head. The people who invent this stuff with that level of complexity...phew. I sometimes get that feeling seeing some of the posts on here, too. But I've digressed. Your restoration looks great. Thanks for sharing.

I know what you mean. As I was rebuilding it I often thought "Wow, what a great idea that part is. Who thought of that?"

That looks so nice with the gears all polished up like that.
