Thanks for the info, Dennis. Do you think mine was produced in early 1913? Back in the 70's, I made a set of bearing blocks for the driven pulley shaft, and mounted an electric motor. I made a set spindle bushings out of bearing bronze, as the babbit ones were shimmed. I also made a bearing block to support the feed shaft, because it was missing, a couple gears, and the guard over them. It works nice on small parts and light cuts. ? ?

There is a Lot 2 #25 and I have lot 2 #36.Yours is very complete?and looks to be in nice condition. As near as we can tell the Lot 2 was only in production for? a year or less before changes were made and the Lot 3 was introduced.? Lot 3 also did not last long as in late 1913 the Lot 4 came out and stayed in production with few changes till the end of the company in 1929.
