I recently purchased this item from a school in Oklahoma. I bought it on E-bay, its base is solid cast iron as is the rest of the machine. It currently has a 3 phase 5 horse motor that is direct mounted to the blade. I plan to completely tear this baby down and make it like new again, it may take a while but it will be worth it in the long run. So far the biggest problem seems to also be one of its best assets, it weighs 1800 lbs. It took a backhoe to get it into the garage and im currently trying to design some way to install casters on the corners.
