Brown and Sharpe Indexing Center

[Ulma Doctor]

I got a find the other day....
a really cool antique Brown & Sharpe 4- 3/4" indexing center with a shop made adjustable tailstock and mount





there will need to be a couple repairs made, but all in all the unit has survived very well

You will find the sub base useful, making for much quicker setups on most jobs. Consider making some keys to fit into your table slots for quick alignment.

Mr. Brown and Mr. Sharpe will both be turning over in their graves if you do that! 8^)

Pretty cool little unit. Any idea on the date of manufacture? Looks like it would be ideal for doing dial graduations and such. Mike
