Comments:
Supplied from my son. Homemade solid steel stand with swivel motor mounting plate. Runs well no loud noises when in operation. Tried dating via comparison to Delta decals shown in this registry. Found a 1943 and 1951 machine decal very similar, decals from 1946/1948/1949 had additional printing under MILWAUKEE and another 1948 decal had what looks like a trade mark symbol outside the black triangle. 1954 was a totally different shape as were the 1939/40 decals.
