Well Angel- mine is a 1930's vintage cast iron Craftsman, a big one, about 25 years ago I paid some old guy who was retiring to Florida $75 for it, I had to take it apart there and was loading it up when he came out and held out a morticing attachment and asked if I had any use for it - and tossed it in as part of the deal.

And Charlie - yes - I had two important goals - get it out of where it had likely been sitting for nearly140 years and don't break it.
