This machine is submitted with permission of the owner, Nor'East Architectural Salvage of South Hampton, NH. It is not wired yet as he needs a motor but I happened to spot it there while purusing his salvage merchandise. It seems to be in nice condition and parts move freely. I was surprized not to see a model 7 in the registry yet so I am glad I happened to have a camera with me. He intends to use it along with a dual arbor table saw and cyclone dust collector he picked up at an auction. (The table saw is not on site yet) This unit includes the knife grinder but was shipped from Northfield without the main motor or electrical controls to Foxboro State Hospital in Foxboro, MA. It was surmised at Northfield that it may have been hooked up to a line belt system there when bought.
Unfortunately, this machine was destroyed in a terrible fire at the salvage yard in 2008, along with nearly all his inventory. He has rebuilt since though.
