Comments:
This machine has been fully restored by AMERICAN MACHINE of Shelby NC. It has a ratcheting mechanism which when engaged will lower the spindle with each turn of the crank. The amount and speed that the spindle lowers is adjustable. The lowering mechanism is easily disengaged by flipping a lever and this allows the spindle to remain at a set height. The 6" cast iron table is adjustable vertically and can swivel left or right A sweet upper arm builder.
