I aquired this machine from a seller who had originally posted it on eBay. I bid on it but didn't meet the reserve. Later he contacted me and we agreed on a price. So on the 31st of March 2007 I took off for New York State. I ended up in the hill country. The machine itself was on a hill out side. After messing around with it for 3 hours and only moving it a few inches, the seller finally decided it was time to call someone with a tractor to help me load it.

This seems to be newer that the other one I own listed here:

Now with two of these and the second being in much better condition, I may be able to have one working one.

A short video of this machine running can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFdo44OyHMI
