I pickup up the machine from a craigslist ad. It was out of an 80 year old mans cabinet shop. The shop was a victim of fire but only the front of the shop was damaged. There were 2 other machines in the shop but i could not fit them in my shop. They were a unisaw and a rockwell planer of the same vintage. Being that the badge on my machine says crescent I would guess that this would be before the selling of the brand?? I am not 100 percent certain, though it makes sense to me. I am restoring this at the moment and will post those pics as well.

Note: the wheels are slightly bent same for the pullies...I suspect the heat had something to do with them being bent or warped...I could be wrong but I have an idea to bring them true again and have ordered new pullies for the motor and drive wheel. The previous owner had balanced the wheels....
