Comments:
I acquired this in August 2013 from a seller in Fayetteville, Ark. He had it for a number of years, and I believe that he bought it from a Michigan seller. Is the number on the frame back the date of manufacture? The table size, fence design (does not have tilt knob, and cutter date indicates that the machine was made between 1915 and 1920.
