As with alot of the old arn this was found buried and forgotten for years in an attic woodshop. This shaper was only produced in 1938 and can be seen in the dirty papers in walker turner catalog g8. condition was far better than some. mechanically, just needed cleaned and greased/oiled and cosmetically i just wiped her down and removed the rust off of the table. appears all original however it is missing the WT handles for the hand wheels and the guard for the hold down. came with a bunch of cutters, moulding heads, and some never opened delta moulding cutters. Machine runs smooth,quiet and set up is easy.
