Another C-list find. The PO got this in a package with other machinery and had another DP (er, um, Chiwanese) and didn't need this one. I was more than happy to take it off his hands. Original 1/2 HP Atlas motor, runs smooth. Spindle grease was ancient, needs a good lube, but runs out well.Its in pretty good shape, don't think that orange was the original color, though. I'll probably strip and go with machinery gray.
