I have wanted one of these for years. I finally had some extra money to do something with so I decided to hunt around and find one. I must say it is pretty ingenious how it works. It is pretty much 99% made of metal and very well built at that. For being 65 years old and well worn, everything mechanical still works very well.
Since getting it home and playing with it I discovered that it needs some electronics modernization and the one rubberized drive wheel needs to be replaced as it's hard as a rock. Later on I'll give it a paint job and make it look original. It will certainly make a great addition to my garage tool arsenal. I have never found anyone in my area that has one.
