Wilcox And Gibbs Antique Sewing Machine Restored

Description

The Wilcox and Gibbs Antique Sewing Machine is an original piece from pre-1930.
Machine was slightly restored. First oil components were thoroughly cleaned. The sewing machine was thoroughly cleaned. All the metal polished and a clear coat was applied to stabilize the paint. And add some nice shine.
The electric motor was lightly cleaned oiled. I checked the brushes. There in good shape. I added new wicks to the oil Wells the little Copper Cylinders were oiled again.
The wood was thoroughly cleaned. Sanded down. Both the top and the bottom were restained and finally two coats of oil based polyurethane for a strong wateroof durable finish
The machine runs well on all the 4 different speeds. And then you can add attention to the tensioner. But I realized the needles broke so I can't thread the needle, but I think it would work but i'm not positive.
