Comments:

This was another basket case machine when I obtained it. It was missing some parts but most were ones I could reproduce. It also had some previous owner caused issues that needed correcting and I gave it a much needed full restoration.
Had one of these not been such a difficult machine to find I would have most likely passed on this one.
It is one of the later versions that have better guarding and dust collection. Before I started the restoration I managed to find the elusive circle Jig.

According to the Birth Certificate it was purchased by North American Aviation in Downey Calif in 1962. Interestingly I worked there for a short period of time in the 1970’S.
