Nice old mill!
This is the job in hand
Wow! That is a beautiful old machine!
Any idea the date it was made?
What scale is that? What size is the table?
I'd love to see some more pictures!
I'll have to go search that name too.
Just Wow!

EDIT: I found some good reading here:

i have used electrolytic rust removal lots of times, it really works well
perhaps you may consider using Carbon Anodes, the parts will easily clean with a toothbrush or the like.
when using a iron anode, there is sometimes a need for considerable scrubbing off of the resulting magnetite left from the electrolytic process
i have a detailed write up of the process in the following thread ,

i apologize in advance for the lengthy read, but it does contain some useful information in pertinence to your query.
i wish you the best of luck!
