This sweet little thing works like a top. It is 110volt. Just plug it in and away she goes. It's used primarily for mortise work. Spoke holes (and many other things)for wagon wheels were made with it. I'm not sure how it was originally powered. The "Buffalo" decal on the top cowel is original. I'm not sure how old it is.

[ADMIN NOTE: Added an estimated production date of 1940 based on the Buffalo Forge 15" design being introduced in '37 and the low serial number of this Canadian Buffalo example.]
