Re: Olympic joy
There was a guy on our local market used one of these to cut keys as there wasnt any elec supply close by...worked a treat..Mind you in those days nobody was rushing around at 90 miles an hour...You left your original key,went for a brew and came back later...
Oh and ringo...keep those 2 pots on top of the machine topped up with thin oil every time you use it and it'll last another 100 years

Damn that's lookin' nice! What a piece. Fine cleanup job. I know it can be so rewarding bringing something back to life.
