Comments:
Purchased from the recipient of an estate 2015. No other history known. This machine has some nice features such as MT#2 accessories, ability to turn 90 Degrees for bowl turning with just the release of a spring loaded knob and the loosening of the head stock bolt, 1X8" head stock threads allowing the use of Delta and Powermatic faceplates and chucks, and an easily changed clutch allowing speed of 550 to 1200RPM. It is all cast iron so is very stable. Motor number is 346
