Saw this on a local add. What caught my eye is it is labled as "Made in Franklin, PA" which is nearby to me, yet I never heard of this company (Colburn Machine Tool Co). When I checked on here the only other machine submitted as made by Colburn is a table saw. If I didnt already have a couple large, slow speed drill preses I would have definitely have thought about buying this beast. (Nothing like cranking down to 20RPM to punch some 1" holes in steel plate). It has a #4 Morse spindle and a 3 axis milling type table.
