I have a little weakness, I like Vintage American equipment.
There is not a lot over here in Australia, but when you see it, you will under stand, as it stands out with its own beautiful styling and shape.
The majority of our Woodworking equipment was either locally made or imported from the UK and England being part of the commonwealth and all.
But very early in the piece there were several companies bringing in US made woodworking machinery.
H.P.Gregory were one such company for instance, they were merchants for J.A.Fay & Egan who made some of the best US Equipment.
Do any of our forum members here with an interest in old woodworking machinery run any American made stuff ?
If so, love to hear about it if you like !!
Here are some of my machines, some restored, some to be restored...
1885 J.A.Fay 38 inch Bandsaw.
Restored 1927 Greenlee 18 inch Table saw
1910 American woodworking machinery 12 inch Jointer
1947 De Walt GE 16 inch Radial arm saw
1890 Rowley & Hermance Sweepstakes moulding machine.
