Wow. Now I'm grateful that the prior owner of mine talked me out of disassembling the knee for transport.the reassembly of the knee was awful. It took me a week of 8 hour days to get it back together.
Dear sir,I have a #2. Let me know what you need to know. I haven't run it, but I have done a total disassembly, cleanup, and repair of a couple broken parts.

All you guys with Brainard and Becker/Brainard mills: We need to get together a bunch of good quality pictures to Tony at www.lathes.co.uk . He's got nothing on these and would be very interested. I promised him pictures of mine when I get it set up.
Eric - thanks for the pictures. When I go to assemble mine, I''ll probably be coming back to you for some details and pictures, especially the table feed. I have a box of parts and no information as to how it goes together (sort of like your "before" picture.

As near as I can figure, this predates Brainard's merger with Becker. I suspect this mill is about 1890 vintage.
