last wed. I decided to Go to the Flea market. In our area NJ, there is generally nothing. While passing a Table , I noticed a familiar handle. When i asked the guy. he pulled this out. I started to get Chest Pains.
He then said It was a grommet machine. I knew then he did not have a clue. . he then showed me how to make Grommets. It also was not my job to educate Him. I told him I wanted to make a lamp out of it. I did not Jump @ his first price . I like to dicker. So we danced for about a half hour. Since he got it for free. and what I got it for. I was very, very happy. . The piece was encrusted in dirt and grime. After2 days cleaning Here is the result. Automatic Duplex, #48 dates I think 1948?. dies in 270 winchester. . The machine total works. but seems to have a small primer feed. #2 on the slide. . Possible Other items . But the guy would not have Known.
Well here the Photo.
My lucky day
