1890's antique metal bender double truss cornice brake
Roofing ANTIQUE METAL BENDER FROM APPROX. LATE 1890's
IT CAME ORIGINALLY FROM ZINKELS ROOFING COMANY IN FT.LAUDERDALE FLORIDA.
HE TOLD ME HIS GRANDFATHER PURCHASED THIS MACHINE WHEN THEY STARTED THE ROOFING CO. BACK IN THE LATE 50'S
THEY WENT OUT OF BUSINESS AND WE HAPPEN TO GET THIS ANTIQUE GEM.
THIS MACHINE STILL WORKS JUST FINE.
THIS IS THE ORIGIAL DOUBLE TRUSS CORNICE BRAKE MACHINE. THIS COMPANY IS GONE OUT OF BUSINESS.
MADE SOME PHONE CALLS AND I GUESS ITS WORTH ALOT OF MONEY.
IF YOU'RE LUCKY TO EVEN STILL HAVE ONE AROUND AND THIS ONE EVEN STILL WORKS JUST FINE.
IT HAS THE MANUFACTURED COPPER PLATE ON IT THAT STATES THE NAME OF THE COMPANY.
ITS ALL ORIGINAL WOOD. I PUT 1 PICTURE OF THE ONLY ONE I FOUND ON GOOGLE. I WAS TOLD IT WAS MANUFACTURED IN THE LATE 1899'S BUT THEY DON'T FOR EXACTLY WHICH YEAR IT WAS MADE
YOU WILL NEED ABOUT 6 GUYS OR A FORKLIFT MACHINE. IT WEIGHS A TON. I DONT KNOW HOW MUCH IT EXACTLY WEIGHS BUT IT WEIGHTS ALOT.
