05 March 2006:
So I'm in the basement; finally painting the cabinet stand for my Craftsman/Atlas drill press. My wife pops in and says she saw a rusty old machine at the neighbor's curb, while bike riding with the younger daughter. She couldn't ID it. I rode over in the car and rescued this machine.

I'm guessing it is 1940s or 1950s, but not sure. I couldn't find any tag until I saw the corners under the fence arm. I removed the fence arm and scrubbed it with a tooth brush and mineral spirits, along with the motor label. The contact wheel looks worn and the upper guard doesn't appear to be original.

Hoover motor with grease fittings at each end, 1/2HP, 1725RPM, J56 frame.

This is a likely candidate for the electrified water bath, when the weather gets warmer.

06 October 2006 Update: I no longer have this machine, it was donated to ArnFest06 raffle.
