What brand is that boring machine? It looks quite different than any I have seen. I have a James Swan 6702, that I find impressive with sharp bits for such a primitive tool.

Joe, it was made by R. Ball & Co. Worcester, Mass. Patented July 7, 1868
We bought it yesterday from our favorite tool dealer and I can't wait to try it out when it gets here.

I drove the girls by the timberframe on Waddell street after a baseball game today. It looks good. Cool location for y'all to have your work at.

I have only a vintage brace, but I like this boring machine
