Sold originally by C.H.Gosiger Machinery. Purchased by me in June 2018 from Morgan County Schools in Berkeley Springs WV where it was being used as a drum sander for high school shop classes. Parts manual and manufacture date provided by Monarch Machine Tool service department. Thanks to Vintage Machinery user George R. Hoelzeman (http://vintagemachinery.org/members/detail.aspx?id=1078 ) for moving and restoration advice. Machine is very tight/smooth. While the quill runs true, the MT1 taper has about 0.008" total indicated runout. Table crank handle was broken, otherwise drill appears to be complete. Previous owner replaced origional belt with a 520J 52" (1321mm) 10 rib (about an inch wide) belt which seems to work fine.
