Re: Black and Decker Valve refacer
My red one I think is from 1946 --that is the year the 1 man shop opened, it was kept near perfect, no wear, I have probably doubled it's use ---when the original belts came apart I used rubber bands for a while
The black one is my 2nd machine,, I bought it at Hershey, it has a 1927 date on the armature, this machine is well worn but it has capabilitys that most other machines don't ---the valve chuck is a Jacobs chuck---0 to 5/8, good for making special bolt heads, stepped drills----the ways are very worn, and it isn't something you want to stand in water and touch----but it will do valve that won't fit most machines
