Comments:
I discovered this machine lying in the sand under the Great Auditorium in Ocean Grove NJ while working on the pipe organ there. The current organ curator gave it to me.

Comments: The Craftsman badged model has the tilt and side-to-side movement of the fence on two seperate controls. This has the one handwheel for both. It also doesn't have the aux guard on the back side of the fence.
