    This video ROCKS!!! Guess you have done this a few times before, lol. Wish I was your neighbor so I could hang out and learn how to do this as effortless as you. Wonder how many hours were involved in this rebuild. Best part of the video is seeing the actual work instead of someone’s face and them talking just to be seen. Thank you for this informative video, I LOVE MACHINERY and of course I subscribed, I mean I had to right?

      Thanks, Matty. Looking back, I would do a couple things different. But I'm glad I didn't paint this one.

    This was an amazing rebuild! Do you keep these machines for your own use, or resell them? A few years ago, I (foolishly) bought a clone mill that had been outside for years. It had terrible rust etc. I spent about a year refurbishing it. Your rebuild brought back memories of how much I struggled. But is was a pleasure to watch because you do such a good job and because of how beautify it all is going back together. You did a great job of taking a long project and making a nice summary video. Keep up the great work.

      These are my machines. I don't resell them. As much as I enjoyed the rebuild, I wouldn't want to do them over and over on the same kind of machine. It would have to be one of those "too good to pass up" situations. Which is basically how I came into all of my machines so far.

      @@MyLilMule OK, Thanks. When people ask my wife what I do with the machines I fix, she tells them that basically I just then work on another machine.... At some point I'm going to have to break this cycle. Ha! Sounds like we might be of kindred minds. :-)
