I thought i would show some pictures of my mills 45 being restored. First picture is the frame stripped down it is made out of wood, second picture is the inside restored with new copper liner, motor rebuilt. The third picture shows the complete machine insides finished, the last picture shows it in my living room with some of my juke boxes.

Amazing! Thanks!
Maybe someday you should think about documenting your collection in a book.

Jeff, it is a great collection and I think some of the guy are right about putting your collection
in a a coffee table book with your collection I think it would do well.
On the copper tank, I like that alot adds a real nice touch.
Thanks for sharing Jeff
