This thing was covered in rust and was all gunked up. Really difficult to turn. I should’ve taken a before pic, but forgot. Sorry!
I’m out of paint stripper. Need to pick some up. Next step is removing the japanning and painting.
Millers Falls No. 3 – I believe from 1910-1915 (based on oldtoolheaven)
Soaked in vinegar, cleaned up metal parts on wire wheel then steel wool, sanded wood and applied boiled linseed oil & paste wax, greased & oiled. Works like new.
