This machine came out of Mount Vernon, WA and was used by a hobbiest woodworker who bought it from Buckner-Weatherby Machinery in Seattle. While the machine tracked well during the test drive, the belt tracking deteriorated over time. To restore performance the drums were recrowned, and the pivoting bearing bracket casting for the idler drum was replaced because it was overbored at the factory and the bearings fit too loosely. It is equiped with an Arrow Hart switch and Howell "Red Band" motor (1ph, 3/4 HP, 1725 RPM, capacitor start, 115/230, P56 frame)
