    These machines are great for post apocalypse preparedness as they do not need prepared staples. Wire will be available salvage or new production early in the climb back to civilisation so this can keep working for longer and back in business sooner.
    I have always known then to be a "wire stitcher" and even contemporary print shops would offer the service of having your booklet wire stitched. Yeas before this machine your book signatures would be hand or later machine stitched with thread and then bound in a case or between boards and the name carried over.
    If the paper support was angled like a gable roof the machine would be called a "saddle stitcher" as it would place the wire stitches (staples) accurately into the fold of the booklet.
    You can search for "thread book stitching machine" here or "saddle stitcher" for inspiration.

I am really torn though on the bondo, I like the original casting "defects" for lack of better words, and are part of what dates it and I feel add to the piece rather than something to be hidden like in restoring a car ... if'n ya knows what I mean 😉

    Lovely restoration! As old as that piece of machinery is, the design & function are timeless. Arguably, traditional book-binding (and books as a common medium of communicating information) is likely to become obsolete as electronic devices have a substantial foot-hold as the primary means of communication.
