Comments:
Acquired on CL in Portland, Oregon area. Prior owner was a machinist/patternmaker/millwright working in the area. Machine came on an owner-made wooden base and powered by a Dayton 3HP motor.

Did a full tear-down and restoration documented on the OWWM site (http://www.owwm.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=211247). New bearings, pulleys, belts, blades, and power cord. Replaced all worn or missing parts. Built a new custom base and she's now ready for another 60 years of work.
