Default Next restoration project

Picked this up at an estate sale today. It's a National Cash Register Model 2 made in 1890. One of the earliest models made. All the keys work, but the drawer is stuck closed. Heavy! Couldn't carry it out by myself. Should be interesting!

Awe inspiring to think of the craftsmanship that went into making something like that.

I'll bet it's weight was an unexpected insurance against theft!

Very cool
Just imagine if you will the stories that thing would tell if it could. Where it's been, all the different hands and currency that's been put in and taken out over the years...
Old stuff is interesting as heck

If you need parts or technical assistance you can contact these folks:

http://www.hbacgroup.com/

They are friends of mine and have made careers out of restoring these registers.

Thanks bullockcm; I may need their help. I have 3 flags missing and the top sign. It's coming apart slowly; 3 brass screws that are being stubborn. The drawer sliding mechanism is corroded pretty bad. Experimenting with vinegar as a brass cleaner.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
