This was mainly a machine to practice my repair skills and it was
definitely a challenge. To make a long story short, I adjusted and greased the mainsprings,repaired a spring on the governor, and added an HMV no 4 soundbox.
Somebody refinished it at some point so I just wiped it down with Howards
feed n wax. It was fun to see it running after the battle was over.
