Bought in the UK
Sold as rusty not working may interest collector of old machinery.
Fixed the not working just a sticking starter contact.
Made a new quill lock handle and cotter
Made a new depth stop
Drilled a new hole in the end of the clock return spring
Spindle was found to be a little bent when clocked on my lathe
Cleaned the Jacobs chuck and ground the jaws this reduced runout but also reduced grip
Re cut the 1 - 20 unef thread so I could screw on an ER20 collet chuck to improve grip on drill bit and reduce runout
The century electric motor may be original as it is 50 cycles
