Introductions, and a restoration project

Just a brief note on how things are going. Trying to finish restoring this old (new style) GP Gordon, which started out as a pile of scrap parts (literally!). Roller arms have been rebuilt, and may need a little adjustment to slide easily. Inner ink disk had been temporarily removed for work on the rotation mechanism, and we still have to turn the flywheel around the right way. Going to try to finish machining and install the treadle by the end of the month. The goal is to print with it this year, and that just might happen!

It’s good to see this press nearly finished—how long have you been working on this?
