Comments:

Acquired this fine machine from Specialty Millwork, Portland, around 1984. It has been heavily used since. The 2 1/2 is the perfect machine for a custom sash shop. In addition to sash parts, it is well appointed for running glass bead, stops, caps, base caps, and small picture rail. It can also rabbet jambs and raise panels.
Of the American sash stickers, this is the most versatile design.
