Comments:
Bought this off CL awhile back. Came with the wood stand, chisels, centers, face plate, arbor and 1/2" chuck. Has a GE motor with a cast iron case. Runs well with no bearing noise. The blue is kinda hard on the eyes. Will go through it and then tone the blue down. No model number tag anywhere nor any rivet holes to indicate one was ever mounted. Some numbers stamped on the bed at the tail stock end but are wore unreadable due to age and use.

Comments: The head stock. The switch will be moved so not to have fingernails and fingers manicured by the motor pulley.
