Restored 1959 Craftsman 100 Table Saw

Thanks PJ.
Yes I do have some old Craftsman items.
Drillpress and Bandsaw like yours, wood lathe, belt/disk sander and 24 inch Scroll saw.
in the background is actually a Sheldon WM-56-P lathe.

Next to that is a Van Norman 22M milling machine.
The 22M was my latest restoration.

Wow Mike those are beautiful restorations and you are definitely passionate to take on the VN 22M, beast. Oh My!! Hope you have the concrete under it! Do you have the horizontal stuff for it? Couldn't find much info on the 22M but assume its 3x autofeed based on what I can see but the table and lift are beefier than the others I saw. Honestly I'm just a novice to some of this older industrial stuff, but love it, especially bringing them back to life for another long run!

The Sheldon 13" has that look of Built to last and precision...Nice piece of Kit!! Looks to be a later variety (50's+)? My brother picked up a 43', 13"x 6' SB a while back in pretty good shape with lots of extras...on a heck of a deal.

That 24" Scroll is a beast also and by the engine turning on the shield it looks to be a King Seeley too? It never ceases to amaze me what Sears Roebuck - Craftsman products did for the home shop guys for all these years.

Thanks for sharing your passion here and look forward to More posts...a bunch more from you and your dad! Much appreciated.
