Nice restoration. The advert is a nice touch.
Steam on!

I do not have mine here, but when I get to it I can if someone doesn’t beat me to it…
Sounds good to me, when ever you can if someone else doesn't. I think the board is likely 1/4 in thickness - it seems 1/8 would be to thin. If I decided to make it, I'd like to get it as close as possible with the dimensions & hardware.
I have perfect engine & the accessories for this workshop. I even think my grinder/polisher was on a workshop board as it has double pulleys so it could run a saw.

@Nick would you be able to give the exact dimensions of the Masonite board, Length/Width/Thickness? Then perhaps even the placement of the where all the screws? Oh, and the screw/nut sizes?

One of my treads that started out on the Empire B-42 drifted into talking about the Empire Workshop. So I figured I'd dig that out into its own thread.
This accessory is made up of a Engine (#62 but perhaps not always), Buffer / Grinder, and Saw on a Masonite board. The ad lists the engine to be a reverser, so that is why I say its a "No. 62". Also, the engine hut or cylinder perch seems to generally be painted black. Some engines on the board have the plug under the sight glass (but not in the ad's image).
Thank you @Nick for the ad & image of your Workshop.
Thank you @crazydoug for his video
