One must be careful when removing paint from large cast iron machine

In my case, there was no bondo.

It is indeed rather rough, I think that they ground the casting in
some places and left is as is in most places.

Its a freaking press. Give it a shot of primer, paint to suit and put
pin stripes on it in a complimentary color. Or flames or racing
stripes or have it chromed.

I think that it would be cool to make it look like a toy.

Paint TONKA on it in block letters


Put Hakie's picture on it. Nothing else could make it look more like
a toy.
