I sadly do not own this machine. I found this on FB Marketplace for $50 but did not have the time to get to it and the seller was not willing to wait a few days. This sold in the mid-Michigan area and appears to be in great shape. It is the only C-Frame I have seen with the rib cast into the C part on the back (although I've not seen many). Fastened to a homemade stand with a generic capacitor motor. Also appears to have a larger pulley attached as it was either all that was available or was used to cut metal. This machine does not have a miter gauge slot in the table or fence mounting holes.
