      have a hammer about 200 years old from my great great grandfather who came from Holland. This hammer is a family heirloom. I’m not sure what type of metal it’s made out of, it has a leather handle. I’ll pay you $250 to restore her.

    What a beautiful restoration! You are very talented, and obviously take pride in your work. A family member had a Salter scale very similar to this - perhaps a 1930s make. It had the same brass face, but was a very pale mint green, it was a very striking combination. But I do like the gold trim you added.

    That, good sir, is absolutely beautiful! The paint job you did is perfect, makes the whole chassis of the machine look more like porcelain than cast iron.

The fact that it can do typical lathing duties and still do double duty as a milling machine makes this the MUST OWN machine in anyone's shop. Seriously!

    my grandmother has a similar Salter scale. I think from the factory that they were enamel coated. I don't mean enamel paint, I mean proper enamel coating. The pitting on the cast surface wouldn't have been an issue. Also, the fashion of that era would most probably have been blue detail of similar shade to the masking tape you used and not gold. This is just FYI. I always enjoy your restos
