The paint is from Tractor Supply - Tractor and Implement paint Massey Ferguson Gray. The table top was pieced together from several table scraps I had laying around, the logo was cut by one of my buddies out of vinyl and then I polyed over it.(I got the idea from another forum member who did this and I really liked the look. The motor I had laying around from another project it is 3/4 horse, but the capacitor was mounted on the bottom, so I had to make the spacers you see to give the clearance I needed.

Let me know what you think....

Paul, typed it wrong. I ment seeing two of them and one done in inlay. That being yours. I can do the decal but I have not tried inlay yet.
Sorry to miss lead you. Yours is the only one so far. I am sure someone else will give it a try.

My goodness!!! I know what happened. I got past the first part of the first sentence "Here is the 10er I just finished up restoring, ....." and I got so excited to see the photos that I never even finished reading any further.

Having just recently completed MY ER10, that intro sentence really hit a sweet spot with me.

The Lady looks pretty in red!

Are those 10E tailstock castings???(two studs) You may have a 10E, not a 10ER. Quill spring housing looks like a 10E. Some other things are 10er though.

both tailstocks were bought after origional purchase so they could be from any old unit.

Always enjoy seeing pictures of old made in the U.S.A. tools restored and still in use. Great job and nice setup.
