I acquired this in a sale along with another machine I was purchasing. A call to Black Bros confirmed the manufacturing date. They also very generously sent me an image of the paperwork they still had for this machine on microfiche. It is a very heavily built machine and is still in very good operational condition. The entire clamping mechanism can rotate 360 degrees and be held in any position by a hand brake. I am told there are not many of these left. They have largely been replaced with pneumatic versions.
