I picked this up at a derelict sawmill in Addison, MI in the Fall of 2020. The new owner of the property was clearing out. Lots of cool machinery there. Most was taken by old machine enthusiasts. This uses a collet that is threaded on the end of the spindle, with a nut that collapses it on the bit, instead of the typical taper collet and spindle socket. This machine is 2 hp 440v only. The machine had lost its original flat belt and pulleys. In place of that they had put a vee belt and sheeves. I plan to return it to the panther belt. It does have a blower that works off the motor.
