The blue beast! I got this from the American Legion, they said they'd had it for a long time and were getting rid of it because it was "jammed". I got it home and greased the bearings and it took off like new! Not the prettiest thing but it does a great job with the hardwood!

AAh These things are awesome many years ago I had a couple of the bigger diameter versions. IN SA the small diameter ones like the one you have here are very hard to find as they were not as widely used and company's tend to keep them for smaller area's as new ones are hard to find,
