I found this machine with the help of fellow OWWMer Bruce Johnson who found it burried in local ads. It belonged to a machinist who worked for Boeing. His son was selling it off. It has been stitting outside for over 1.5 years, but the parts all move. I ended up paying $60 for it. There are a number of home made parts on it including a blade guard, pulley cover and a rear upper wheel cover (not shown in the pictures). It has a round table unlike I've seen in any of the other photos of this machine. Although it is really hard to see, on the tag it is stamped # 1755 I think it is the serial number
