I bought this off of Craigslist for $75. It was a mess when purchased, but still worked pretty good. I spent about two weeks, disassembling, degreasing, de-rusting, painting, re-greasing and reassembling. Also, I had to get a new chuck for it because the chuck key was lost by the previous owner, and it was an oddball Jacobs chuck made in Hartford Connecticut. According to Jacobs, the tooth design of the 6A chuck was changed in 1982 when the Hartford plant shut down...and finding a new key would be impossible. It should be good for another fifty years now!
