Bought this from a guy in Long Beach, who had bought it from a widow down the street. He had the matching unisaw, but not for sale. The sander had been lightly used in these 2 garage settings since it was new. Bearings in great shape, runs really smoothly, not sound at all from the stand vibrating.
I rewired it to 110 since I don't have 220 in my studio yet, and it blows the breaker periodically!! 220 coming soon!
The best thing I have added to this machine is a dust attachment for the disc sander. Made out of galvanized sheet and duct tape. Just enough clearance for a 2 1/2" hose to fit next to the belt. There is almost no dust coming out now even when I really push on it.

Comments: front, I have the cast guild for the horizontal position. Looks like the tracking adjust knob was replaced with a hand-made or modified one.
