I found an antique wine press in my grandparents basement. On the cast iron frame it reads "C.B Hutchinson Pat 1863, Manufactured by J.B. Brown and Co. Peekskill,NY It's in great shape, solid, heavy, wood's great, little rust, works, missing a crank handle on the grape crusher, any advice on what I should do with it. I am thinking about cleaning it up, painting it and displaying it in our home, but if there are people out there that use these, let me know.
