Really History. This is the machine that belonged to the niece of the man who was the Governor of New York during the Civil War and then a NY Senator for a long time. The Fenton Museum did not want to maintain a machine not directly associated so I got the chance the be her caretaker....

I polished the hand wheel today at lunch!
Here is the hand wheel after polishing next to the fixture I built to hold it in the lathe
