Purchased at auction 5 years ago - I didn't know anything about post drills at the time, but now I own 12 of them. The flywheel is missing, the advance arm is busted off and missing and there is some brazing on the center spindle. There doesn't appear to be much info available for this brand of post drill - either they didn't build many, or the quality wasn't good and they didn't survive.
