Jim Roadt Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Trying to preserve not restore this F1 Front has a lot of paint missing, no rust Back in good shape Base good Removed silver paint from hub and blade while maintaining patina as best I could ( mineral spirits) Hub appears to have never been black. Cleans right down to cast iron. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Stephens Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Jim, I am pretty sure your tripod is a 1901 model due to the aluminum tag that is just like the ones used on the PI-241. The hub's center dome was used in 1900 and 1901 I think. Those things are not easy to date though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
