Comments:
- purchased from an Aerospace mfg, Gruman Aircraft, on Long Island. from a famous mfg and plant which built aircraft for WWII forward.

- Big Thanks to everyone who helped make this a reality: Tim, Neil, Mike, Dan, Brian, Erik & more

- Porter Cable D1, 15" Disc Sander w/ MASTER 1hp, 3ph motor

- Jumped on this after using the G4
- Well made, but in need of some attention and potentially a restoration.
- Trunnions look to be lead filled. Not sure if that is factory bearing material or a repair and didn't want to taste it to find out.
- plan to source dust extraction parts, run with VFD, service bearings, etc.
