After some cleaning, polishing and painting the drill looks a bit more friendly. The frame was cleaned, rust-proofed, and painted with black, gloss enamel. I also painted the gear wheel with red, gloss enamel and baked both parts in the oven.
Here are all parts of the drill. I will review them in detail. The Frame
This is a view of the frame from the gear shaft side. I polished the spindle housing, gear shaft and handle attachment screw before painting. During painting these parts were protected with masking tape.
This is a a view of the frame from the side-handle perspective.
The spindle housing is 5/8 inch in outside diameter and was originally nickel-plated. After clean-up and polishing, the plating unfortunately did not survive. It is now highly polished iron. The housing has a provision for injecting lubricant.
