This was purchased from a gentleman in Cannonsberg, MI. He acquired from a local school district several years before and had it stored outside behind his barn. It needed to be derusted and got new bearings throughout. Did not come with the Dumore grinder but did have the grinder bar with jointing stone holder. Restored over the course of 5 months, had the knives sharpened and now it cuts like butter.
