Wessex Gold Brick is a good choice to try it out on. Nice score. I had been looking at those, but was afraid it would become a huge restoration project that I don't have time to do. Nice to know that this one worked right off the bat.
Yes I’m pretty sure it was restored at some point but by restored i mean 3 coats of paint over the old coats of paint and some new nuts and bolts that were a little too long but fit. That being said it works like a charm, no rust or squeaks from the spring and the blade is sharp. For like $88 it’s a win in my books.

Gold Brick should get the special treatment for certain! 3P’s or Salty Dogs would be a true test, I love a tool that works as it should.

I've discovered i have a love for Wessex Gold Brick might have to look for some other plugs, i think i have some F&T Virginia Plug, might be cut plug though, I'll have to dig through the stacks.
Gold Brick is phenomenal tobacco. I was surprised that it got such mediocre reviews on TR.
