THIS MACHINE IS NOT MINE, NOR IS IT FOR SALE, DON'T ASK, AND NO I DO NOT WANT TO TRADE YOUR ITEM "X" FOR IT. THIS IS NOT A SALES FORUM AND I DO NOT HAVE MACHINERY FOR SALE HERE.

The upper parts to include the pump, pulley wheel, swing out pulley guard and motor are in storage with the OWWMember & owner Matthew K. The lower portion, incl the pedestal and tray have been repurposed to suit grinder/buffer. A deck, trunnion, files, an over arm assembly & hardware are MIA.

Some background info that I've found on it. I found the "Oliver of Adrian" website at: http://oliverofadrian.com/ . This firm has been in business since 1913. I called there and spoke w/Mary on 3.15.11, and she provided me with the following info: the filer was manuf. in 1966 and shipped to the then known as the: "Boys Vocational High School" in Bfl, NY which is now part of the Bfl or Erie Cnty school system and known as the "Bfl Alternative High Sch.". I don't know if they still have shop programs there or not for the grades 7-12. This model of machine was no longer made after 2007 and she believes that parts are still available, manuals, parts lists and more info is being sent to me. I have been able to upload manuals & info to the library.
