Price is steep but it looks like the seller is a scrapper. Probably picked it up and figures he can get a more than scrap value for it. One could probably work a deal.

Neat looking machine, don’t think I’ve seen a small horizontal quite like it before. I know exactly where it was made, not far from my house. It’s a condo building now haha.

I like the esthetics of some antique machinery, old Dalton Lathes and such. The larger they are and especially the wide leather belt line driven machines, I would rather look at someone else’s. If you just like old and curious that’s ok, but paying top dollar for a machine that is extremely limited in its ability and function is not very practical. There are still good bargains to be had for very functional machinery at way better prices.
