Averixus

Today I stripped off the flaking paint. Just many rounds of applying paint stripper, waiting, scrubbing, and repeating. Eventually got it all cleared off though.

Next will be cleaning all the other parts of rust, and then repainting. I won't be able to exactly match the old colour so I'm thinking I might do something totally different, but I haven't decided yet.

The body and hand-crank wheel of the machine coated in paint stripper, with the burgundy paint blistering and sloughing off.
The metal body and hand crank wheel, completely free of paint and showing only bare cast iron.
