Following up on uther peoples stuff.
Got the Hamilton tapping machine cleaned up.
Decided to give it a good going over. Tore it down and sand blasted the castings and the old electric motor I found in stock. Rattle can paint job and some buffing on the shinny parts. One bad bearing I found for $3.99 at the parts store and its up and going. Almost, need to find a key for that tiny chuck.

Runs smooth as silk.
And the mule makes a great work bench (Steve will be proud, no horizontal flat surface left unused)

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
