I was gifted this by a friend after his grandfather passed. He was the original purchaser. The motor was not running, so I did a partial rebuild. I was able to get it running, but on the first cut the winding's burned out. I then had Wolfe Machinery rewind the motor with heavier winding's and do a general tuneup as well as remake the missing pawl. Very nice small machine.
