I just got it last week, bought it for $150.00 from a local CL ad. It was partially to dismantled. No information where it came from, besides seller got it from a Blacksmith. I was skeptical at first, due to my not familiarity with the tool, and farther more, lots of the parts was in boxes. The seller said that "It's as he got it, 15 years back. Not too much to relly on. Got home, unloaded it and me and my 16 years old son got busy, trying to put the puzle together. Thankfully, only couple peaces was missing,non moving peaces. You all know how a tool junkie guys gets, when he/she buy a vintage tool; just like a little kid. So there I was until 11PM working on it, knowing that I had to get up at 5am. But was worth every minute that was spent on it. Now I have to find parts manual for it.I know that the handle for the table elevation system is missing.
