antique cast iron meat grinder Enterprise No 12 food chopper tinned finish

Antique vintage Enterprise No. 12 meat grinder, heavy cast iron with a worn and tarnished tinned finish with minor surface rust. This grinder is made to bolt directly to the work surface, rather than fooling around with a clamp that never seems to be tight enough.

This needs a good cleaning be for using to remove the old kitchen grease and soil from years in the farm kitchen. The crank handle is held on with a make-do fix to replace the original thumb screw lost long ago. A wing nut from the front of a smaller grinder in combination with a square head bolt (please see pics) seems to hold the crank on fine.
