Thank you. Im thinking of having to cutters sent to the states to have them sharpened. Will be looking into shipping costs round trip as well as cost of sharpening.

Here is the Keil (Ilco I now see) taken down to clean

Ok. My second machine is clean and ready for display.

Here is where i need help. These two switches attach under the base. The one on the left is a micro switch and the one on the right is a broken always up switch.

The machine is to start when the one on the right is depressed (pops back up) and stop when the micro switch is released. I need to know how to wire up to the motor and am still looking for any help as the website i reached out to has not responded.

your process is very organized, excellent photos too! I like that big roller with the groove in it, it's nice to see this history come back to life.

nice work!

I have trusted Gil Ray tools to sharpen my cutters in the past, they did a good job www.gilraytools.com

I have seen old unused cutters selling on E-bay for less than sharpening costs :shock:

That is great news and I thank everyone for the feedback.

I will look into all options for a 19MC cutter for the Keil or sharpening.
