Some restoration in preparation

[ad.328isport]

Hi all, I'm Adam from the North West UK, to cut a long story short I've moved into a new property that has come with a small shed F.O.C so I'm turning it into a small workshop for winter. While I'm waiting for a few bits to get cracking I've started restoring some tools left to me by my grandfather.

First I restored my record imp mini vice

And a Wesco oil can

Still go a tonne of stuff to get through and get working on my little shed too, but can't wait to get cracking.

Great job restoring both of those pieces! Don't forget to post up some before and during pics of the shed project. Looking forward to seeing more.

Will do, spent some time tonight emptying the place and making a few repairs, will definitely post some pics. Cheers Ad

I've just finished restoring this

I'm told by the guy who gave it to me that it's at least 45 years old. It really was a big job, had to re-wire plus I had to take it back to bare metal before paint, works cracking with the cloth mop on it. Cheers Ad
