Bought from a young man doing a home clean out, of a gentleman who a talented craftsman. Several machines were being thrown out, and Corey saved them. Though there are many of these machines listed, this is the oldest, most complete that I have seen. There is no serial number tag, I dated it by the fact there is no tag, and has a 9000 1/2 hp motor, which was introduced in 1939. This machine is 100% complete. Not one bolt is missing, though there are hexagonal nuts on the bolts holding the machine onto the stand that look new, the plug has been replaced, and the cord on the non-working dust collector (made by Hamilton Beach) was replaced. You might notice that the tracking adjuster crank is broken. The PO did that loading it into his truck. Interestingly, all the knobs have factory paint on them.
