Part 4 of the Anacortes dossier.This is a single spindle Horizontal Boring machine - one of three built of this design. This one was built in 1947 for Beeks Sr. by RB Rodgers in Grants Pass, OR where RB retired. It is advanced with a footpedal via chain (visible in picture). There is a flywheel on the drive end. Uses common(still available)screw on bits.
