2/22/09 Was checking CL when I got up and read a posting for an old '30s "molder" that was the last post of the prior night. I waited until 8 am and then called and asked if it was still available. It was, so I arranged to drive over at 8:30...got a call about 8:20....uh oh....but the seller just wanted to make sure I knew that it was a shaper. Looks to have a later '50s base and a Oct '56 motor (one spring fell out!) with the original craftsman gold color. I was able to hook it up and it does run. Planning a full restore.
