I bought this machine from a school district auction near Goderich, Ontario. It had been used as a spindle / drum sander. The belt was slipping inside the head, rendering it unusable. Painted, buffed and repaired all that I could on the machine, so that it now functions as it should. Still needing a few parts that were damaged (just parts of the depth stop, so it is usable.) Had the spindle turned to accept a standard size threaded drill chuck as it had a non standard thread.

A nice 70 yr old machine, not by any means heavy duty or anything, but great for woodworking.
