yep, i did. It's a little rough, but it's usable. I believe the date says it was made in 1873. The man i bought it from was about 60 some years old, and he said it was his fathers. He was pretty firm on the price, but I got it for $70. I think it'll clean up good with a wire brush and some time. Is it ok to use like 100 grit sandpaper on the face?? i would like to get it real smooth, although it is already pretty smooth.
