[QUOTE="Rayo56, post: 395177, member: 2022"]I remember my Dad used this to level our cottage many moons ago before it was wiped out by the Vermilion River flood of 1969. ([URL]http://ohsweb.ohiohistory.org/swio/pages/content/1969_flood.htm[/URL]) He always told me to make sure I get it out of his shed. Well sadly he passed on June 28th and I finally brought it home. Don't know much about it but made with heavy cast iron parts. Any info would be appreciated.
