Bought this machine used from a dealer, New bearings and trued the flanges. The original single piece tool rest wasn't versatile enough, so I made some from angle iron. Locking handles were installed instead of bolts. One side holds an abrasive cut-off wheel for cutting and fine detailing of shaper cutters. Studs and wing nuts were installed to hold the outside guards on. The inside guards were drilled and tapped 5/16-18 for a Baldor G-11 eyeshield. A sheet metal spark guard was added also. I suspect a new switch and box was added sometime in the past.
