  Rescue?   wow ?  why did I not think of this word before when I came back from the dump every once in a while? ???
     What is one mans vices,   could be another mans pleasures?   Of coarse meaning the new 14 yr. old rules?   
        Happy Christmas.

I am completely dazzled by this dream restoration. Thanks for posting.

I restored this old gal many years ago - not to the cosmetic detail of this one but fully functional.

It is a big Dawn model built to last forever - I am sure it will outlast me  ;)

To buy quality like this new you would have to pay around A$200 but it was another great garage sale score.

Wow, after watching that video, I felt a little guilt and had to grab some grease and give my vice a little love. Didn't realize the value of some of them.

That was so very entertaining to watch. Makes me wish I'd chosen machinist as a career. And the end result is just too beautiful to ever use! Wow.

Since we are showing photos of our vices, here are a couple of mine.  Unfortunately, there are others.

It can't be too difficult - a lot of people do it.
