Nice! Looks like it's usable - Is it plug and play or are you doing a restoration?

Nice machine. Bonus chucks as well.

Thanks guys, it does run as it sits but for now I will go through it and do some routine maintenance on it ( clean, adjust, felt, etc.) Would like to get a drive for it and get the old motor on it again as the 1/4 hp dc drive is lacking in power. I'am just amazed at the intelligence of our fore fathers who designed and built machines back in that era.
