<p>[QUOTE=&quot;springfld.arsenal, post: 17799, member: 54&quot;]No old bronze cannon should be polished, period.&nbsp; The famous militaria and reproduction gun dealer who imported this from UK had shown me a photo of the collection of some 15 wonderfully-patinated bronze pieces as they sat in their UK-owner&#039;s home when they were on the way to the US.&nbsp; Knowing his desire to brighten all old bronze, no matter how brutal the means required, I pleaded with him to leave them alone, and that I&#039;d buy them all if possible, and pay more if left unpolished.&nbsp; His massive ego made him ignore me and have his workers use whatever power tools they thought necessary to polish them all quickly.&nbsp; I tried anyway.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the old thread, I bought some replacement parts and think I will be able to restart the old computer which will hopefully have the files I want.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
