8/2012 - Found this at HGR Surplus in Cleveland, on a lead from a OWWM listmember 'sqneck'. I have no prior history, but was obviously in an industrial setting, based on belt guard, wiring, machine lamp ( Ajusco brand, Milwaukee), and lots of coats of paint and plenty of oil. Base is heavily rusted underneath, but will clean up; rest of the DP has at least three colors/layers of paint slathered on. Non-OEM motor is a 1/2 HP Dayton. Neatest thing about this DP is the OEM slow-speed attachment - you can see it mounted in the column. All of the pulleys are in good shape.
Should clean up and add to my Herd of Buffalos - numbering three now.
