Mine is a 21x72 Monarch built in 1945 was restored by an annal retired machinist who did a stunning job on it. With the aloris tool holder and all of the tooling I have over 6500.00 in it.
A machinist freind bought an import for 13500.00 and could never get it to cut accuratly and ended up replacing the headstock bearings with Timkins to fix it.
