Before a friend ham wanted to throw it to the scrapyard, I could get a hold on it. The needed trafos for the spindle motor and the bulbs were just hanging around so I made an aluminum case to hold them. The spindle height lever automatically switches the spindle on as soon as lowered. May be someone gets some ideas to make his own.

This is what I use for small boards. It only has about an inch and a half throat but is very stable. I think it was used by clock makers but there is no information available for it.
