Comments:

Purchased the machine from a local retired machinist in 2008. Machine is complete, has no excessive wear and works very well. This is an earlier model from the teens which is evidenced by the table elevating handle which can be seen in the early catalogs. The design was changed in the early 20's. 3/4 HP single phase motor, #3 Morse taper, functional power feed that will drill a 1" hole in a thick steel plate and not even grunt. Recently sold in 2023. Used for 15 years. Bought a bigger one with #4 MT.
