Brown Boggs No 78 refurb

Normally I would agree with you, but after I had done all that , I cleaned up the old blades and realized one blade was cracked. Even though I am a millwright / welder by trade, I do not think I could manage to anneal this blade, then harden and temper it after welding, so I have defaulted to the "Pros from Dover"



I have a supplier that will make a new set of blades for me, and they are going to see if they can repair the old set as well, so I have a spare set. Blades are not cheap, but after all this getting the machine cleaned and ready, it would be a shame to walk away from it for the sake of a set of blades.
