This is a Craftsman bench sander model 103.0803. This was given to me by my brother in 2008, when he was cleaning out his late Father-in-Law's woodshop. I do not have any of the work supports or sanding disk, but depending on the true date of manufacture, this may have been shipped as a bare-bones machine with no accessories. I cleaned and oiled it. It has seen a lot of use in its time, but now it has a new life in my collection. I've only had it under power once to sand down some material. It is a heavy duty unit. ***Special thanks to a fellow West Coast OWWM member who contacted me and supplied the accessory work table, miter and sanding disk!
