Quite old - 70's probably (they didn't date them back then, but it's No 10).
I can't see any machinist charging $180 for this work. Sorry. Just my opinion.

The whole idea behind 90% of my posts is that you
CAN get that equipment, for about what a 1937 S/42 in 90% shape or better costs...And you
CAN take a course in metal working at your local trade school, at night...
It's not a question of
FORTUNATE...
