I got the machine from a guy in El Paso that builds reporduction Harlies from scratch just like the originals were. The guy gave me a several hour tour of his shop.
https://www.facebook.com/TimelessMotorCompany/I'm not sure what the original purpose was, but it is very large. They were were trying to get into rebuilding antique engines. The engine guy retired and they had all they could do building motorcycles at the time I bought the machine. He gets over $100k for a completed cycle. Probably more lucrative than building engines.
