Comments:

Unrestored line shaft driven post drill. The #16 is the largest post drill offered by Canedy-Otto. This example is still equiped with its original safety chuck, a predicesor to the jacobs chuck.
Upper flywheel missing and the table is a replacement. If anyone can provide dimensions or pictures of origianl parts to help fabricate an approperate replacement they would be appriceated.

This machine was also available in an electrified version and with a factory made cast iron post.
