I bought this machine about August 1,2002 . I is mostly complete. Has a 26" band saw, a table saw that has a table that tilts and will take up to a 16" blade, a 12" Jointer/Planer, a shaper with about a hundred knives and a horizontal boring bar. There is much with the machine I have not figured out. I have all the original (disc-type) clutches which have been replaced with those, heck I don't know a cone thing comes and moves two arms out to clutch the drive pulley. If anyone knows about this thing , please feel free to write

The second picture is what I believe to be one of the original clutches on this machine. There are a pair of them and they must be mounted right next to each other on the main shaft 180 degrees apart to balance the heavy weights. The odd thing is that the drive pulleys have discs that drop from the outer circumference of the pulley in toward the the center and are clutched by a roller eccentric (not pictured) via a leaver arm and a clutch collar. Anyone ever see the likes of such?
