I had an old (1970s?) kenwood chef passed on to me a few years ago by a relative helping a neighbour with a house clearance - it must have once been the pride of someone's kitchen. It looks like this: http://www.museumofcroydon.com/ixbin/indexplus?record=CAT4763
It works fine, has all it's parts, and I've had some pretty good use out of it including the annual Christmas Cake ritual, and a new one would be £200+ so it's quite a result!
It has, however been niggling me that it is almost entirely made of metal and only has a 2 core flex, and I can't see it being Class II. Would it be straightforward to add an earth - like rewire with a 3 core flex, make a hole in the metal casing and bolt the earth to it? Or is it more complicated than that?
