Comments:
Purchased near Warren Ohio for $200. From old catalogs on Vintage Machinery dating it prior to Central Specialty take over by King-Seely in 1944. Stripped and sprayed with Rustoleum Midnight Blue Satin, a good match for the original paint. Constructed a new white oak and black cherry bench and added a Start/Stop switch. The motor is a 70s era Sears model. Just added oil to bearing reservoirs and stripped rubber sleeve off drive cylinder. Recoated with 3 layers of Flex Seal rubber coating which works fine.
