Mid 60's Classic Black Thumbscrews (Photo Heavy!)
« on: September 24, 2014, 05:18:01 PM »
A big thank you goes out to @harris92 for offering this beauty up in the members area!!

As soon as it arrived I anxiously got started on cleaning her up a bit... it was already in excellent shape when it got here so my job was relatively easy. Quick kettle detail and then a leg, triangle and vent mini-resto and voila!

















I'm just thrilled with it - and it's my oldest kettle yet!

Cheers again Stephen!  8)

We are! I was in panic mode trying to get this complete and snap an outside shot before it started raining again  ;)

Looks like Sat/Sun are supposed to be good to us - we've been very lucky out west this year!
