Saved from the scrap yard. Has a huge 40 x 56 table. Machine was designed as direct drive but at one point in it's history was converted to belt drive. Needs a complete restoration, but main parts are in place minus the direct drive motor. Research indicates the direct drive motor could have gone up to 14,400 rpm and was 12.5 hp! Weighs more than 1 ton. A real stout machine
