Among the jointer Lot were some extra pieces of equipment.Â*Â* Jeff at
Northfield couldn't ID one knob with a broken casting.

There is an assortment of similar items, the main one looks like a
fence for a milling machine.Â*Â* The broken knob goes to this "fence".
There was this machine (lower pic) next to the jointer, looks like
some sort of milling machine -

I suspect my extra parts are for this "milling(?)" machine.Â* Can
someone possibly ID these parts, ID them for the milling machine
and/or ID this machine as a milling machine.Â*Â* Scroll right on the
above link for 7 more (parts) pics.

I can't tell what manufacturer (gray could be old Rockwell and/or Delta
but quite a number of others as well) but it is a mortiser and the
"fence" is actually the table that has been broken off...so, "yes, it
does go with the machine on the lower pallet" and the machine itself is
little more than scrap iron without it so if the purchaser had any idea
at all of using it, he undoubtedly would appreciate having same.


Check out
http://www.vintagemachinery.org/photoindex/detail.aspx?id=3145 for
similar...it's Crescent; the old American/Rockwell that I was thinking
of is of quite different main casting shape/style; this approximates
what was there, at least.
