I got this through some fellow OWWMr's. It's either one of the last C.O. Porter machines or first Moak #7's. No badging whatsoever, no casting marks either. Table is 22x30 with a 3/4" spindle. It had a 1.5 HP GE motor which is being replaced by a 5HP Baldor. These are as found. To date I've repainted, replaced bearings and am fabricating a new motor mount. With new electrics, this machine should last me a lifetime or two.
