Purchased for $15 at a yard sale as a winter restoration project, so I’m just getting started on it now. PO could offer no history. The pictures are pretty much as purchased, all I’ve done is wipe down with mineral spirits to remove the worst of the sawdust and grime. #1 Morse taper headstock and tailstock. Came with no accessories except for the spur drive in the headstock. Some surface rust, only some minor pitting on the ways, should be an easy restore. No model or serial numbers on the machine, don’t know the original maker.
