This machine was in an old furniture factory in Suwanee Ga. When I went to work there at 18 (first employee) they were using it. It traveled to Texas with the owners brother who never hooked it up. After seeing him on a visit he told me if I wanted it I could have it. As far as I know it still works fine and I intend to find out as soon as my shop is built. Does anyone know how to date this? Is there any source of parts? The guard was broken at some point and I would like to find one.
