I wonder how much dis-assembly you will HAVE to do? I've painted them up with kerosene before and helped it a lot right quick. I'm pretty chicken when it comes to total dis-assembly... My BIL uses diesel since it is cheaper.
I have a Franklin still in my car. It turns - lots of grime and cobwebs... bare dangling wires... rust.... dangling light... I wonder if the top could come off the cabinet and go right on a treadle base? This one might have to wait for spring when I can work outdoors. I'm going to have spring fever early this year - in fact I'm already showing symptoms..........
