I think that machine was made around 1949 or 50 and I don't think many were made because you almost never see them.I have seen only 2 on this site and I have one of them.If anyone knows more than this I would love to hear.I would also like to know if anything like a gasket goes under the soaplid because mine does not have one.No strainer in the soaplid hole either.
Hey Eddie,That sounds like something I would have done and still would today when it comes to watching a bendix get out of my way!I am sure you saw me in the video.Did you happen to open the soaplid and notice if there was anything covering the soap hole? Loved that soup man I must have more!
