Nice find!  Considering what Spiers infill smoothers go for on ebay, this
definitely seems gloatable.  There are some pretty good infill restorers
here, so maybe one of them will speak up...I recently replaced the bun on
an unnamed small smoother, and it was fun to try and figure out what it

could do a lot better than I!
