A dear neighbor that moved to a care facility sold this to me for $25. He wanted it to go to someone in the neighborhood. I also got my pick of free hand tools from the pile the family was taking to Habitat For Humanity.

According to the table on the manufacturer info page here this was manufactured by ToolKraft.
This example has a spectacular, well done, user modification: it was lengthened to receive a 54 inch belt!

Unfortunately, the sander is missing the stop fence. It was paired with a period 3/4 HP capacitor start GE motor.
