I acquired this dividing head at an auction for not very much money. I had no idea the maker until someone on PM pointed me to a cut from Catalog No 19, circa 1917. It seems to operate just fine. And besides a couple missing oil plugs, it seems fine. And it’s over 100 years old!
To be honest, I don’t know if I’m going to keep it or unload or scrap it. It’s probably worth more at scrap prices than I paid for it. Or at least close. And there Doesn’t seem to be a lot of information out there in it, so I doubt the machine this was paired to is in use today. Are there any others out there? I couldn’t find even pictures outside of an illustration from the catalog.
If someone out there has an interest in it, I’d be happy to work something out. I hate the idea of scraping it, but it’s taking up space and my shop is very small.
