It Followed Me Home, Can I Keep It? - Woodfast Universal Woodworker
It was in the trailer, so technically it did follow me home :roll:. I was given this today by a retired builder, who used to cart it from job to job, many years ago. It was stored for a while near the beach, which is why the lower part has so much rust.
My plan is to give it a quick clean, then see if it's going to work and if it does, then do a full restoration.
I had a quick look at it this afternoon & the main shaft etc still turns & the table height adjuster works, so it seems most of the rust is on the bottom part of the machine. It has an infinitely variable speed control, which can only be changed with the machine running, so I'm yet to see if that's still working.
Does anyone know what colour it would have been originally? What little paint is left seems to be an olive green/grey, but if I do a full resto' I'd like it to be as original as possible.
