Well minus a few small parts that are missing.
I got it from the original owners son who has a MK5 machine. It sits on the base they made for it when they bought it in about 1950/51.
I got it all derusted, repainted, repowered with a new 3/4hp motor. I need to adjust the table saw tables and get it all lined up. I added a Delta 9 inch bandsaw that I had in my workshop. Perfect place for it. Now everything is in one place. I hope my picture gets posted. I have a before picture but its to large to post. You all know how they look, like a bucket of rust...
