I just a got my hands on this nice piece of heavy metal. Got the thing for scrap price! As luck would have it I meet a guy whos dad got this thing for free and he was gonna scrap it but felt bad about scraping it so he sold it to me for cheap! So I now have another machine to restore and use. This machine is a line machine with babbitt bearings, the bearings are in great shape as well as the shaft itself. The only thing missing is a blade guard and one handle. The top has some surface rust from being in a unheated building so easy fix. Nice coat of paint and a 5hp motor and this baby will be back to work.

Comments: Light surface rust no pitting! This machine was a line drive machine. I plan on making it run off a 5 hp electric motor.
