Recently acquired this machine as a package deal. That being said I paid about 100$. I couldn’t pass it up as I knew when I saw it that it was well made. Plugged it in and it gimme. Ran some 8/4 pal through it and it didn’t even batt an eye. I plan on doing a full restoration. I have been doing much research since and with this sites help I believe it to be a late 40s model. Any help identifying its age would be greatly appreciated!
