Purchased from Sing Log Homes in McCleary Washington. Jeff Machacek from Northfield told me: “ It left our plant on 1-7-1985 and shipped to Path Enterprises in Tacoma, WA. It sold for $4,990.00”. It originally had a 4 knife head. The machine will receive a full restoration. 7.5 HP motor.

A full strip down and restore was complete in 2020. New paint, internal OEM dust port, decals, badging, bearings, etc. were applied as sourced from Northfield. A new Byrd Shelix head was installed. It is wired to a 15HP Rotary Phase Converter (15hp Baldor Motor) and runs like a dream - Talk to Jamie Croman (Croman Converters) if anyone needs an RPC - he did a fantastic job on mine!
