Another machine saved from the scrap hoppers. I have to go back and pick it up Thursday, so even though it's spoken for you never really can say it's yours until it is in your truck on the way home.

I have never seen one this new before though it sure looks old, nor have I heard of this model, have you?

Don Simpkins has made some of the nicest English Wheels out of 173 scroll saw frames, as good as the real thing from Britain. He restores antique Morgan sports cars at his shop in the hills of north Georgia and does some of the finest work in the whole country.

Here's Don in the shop discussing the fine art of metal planer electronics before the days of vfd's with Scott Thompson of TN.
