This is a vintage, classic “ locomotive” Porter Cable Model BB10 belt sander.

The BB10 is widely considered to

be the finest belt sander produced by Porter Cable. Takes a 3” x 27” belt, weighs in at 23 pounds. This is the older version with the wooden handle and the forked switch lever. The handle and mounting bracket are in good shape.

No damage nor missing pieces on the castings. The motor and drive run smoothly with no bearing noise. The belt tension system is fully operational. Front knob is damaged; see photo.

The cord is a two conductor system and should probably be replaced with a two conductor with ground cord and three prong grounding plug; very easy to do.

Excellent condition; ready for clean-up and restoration. Made in USA. Thanks fir looking.
