This weekend I found an old Garden Way cider press and fruit grinder that looks like it was sitting in someones garage for the last 15 years. However for the $75 the previous owner wanted I figure I can do some cleaning and touch up the finish. I know how to clean but what should I touch up the finish with? These are the predecessors to the Jaffey floor model presses except they had wooden grinders rather than metal. If anyone has hints on using these things that would be appreciated as well.
Fruit growing was once very popular in my part of the state so all my friends and neighbors have remnants of small apple and pear orchards and the fruit goes to waste. I hope to get this press cleaned over the winter and do some serious gleaning next fall.
Thanks,
