I took a little drive out into the country last Saturday morning and found this at a small town auction. One never knows where Old Arn will turn up these days (smile). Don't know much about it's history other than it's been repainted at least twice, moved at least once, has a replacement Dayton motor, and an unusual BRASS Delta name badge up front - never seen one of those before. It also has the No.1 Morse taper spindle, a 'custom' lamp, and (unfortunately) the arc of shame on it's table. After a few hasty phone calls to fellow Mid-Atlantic Arn Heads Jeff Woods, Bob Vaughan and Mike Floyd I decided to bid on it . . . and $10.00 later it's mine! Actually - it's going to be Bob Vaughan's new baby, when Jeff 'Ruckers' it down to him later this summer. Many thanks to Jeff for coming to get it, and for the photos. More adventures to follow . . .
