The owner of the machine shop had a few other machines for sale; surface grinders, more lathes of different vintage, another small mill, and one machine that I have no idea what it is for.... I was in a hurry so did not ask about it... just took a photo and when I go back to return all the pallets and lumber I borrowed from him, I will ask about those...

Here, this is the one I had no clue what it was/is...

Does the seller still have any stuff? You are so far and it seems like they may have some things I’d be interested in.

12” perfect for my little shop out here.

Yes, the blade cover is cast, not sure from what but it does have one repair.

Restoration is definitely on the docket, and use. I was planning to convert a vertical unit I have but this will be much better.

The guy I bought it from wanted the legs but it’ll work better for me mounted on the cart which holds my clod saw, grinder and die filer. No motor so I’ll either work out the right ratio for one of my 110v motors or find a dc or three phase for variable speed.
