Whaley Mfg Truing Stand

Well I finally found myself a quality truing stand, thing weighs a ton but I think it's awesome. Unfortunately at some point in the past the base was broken in the middle, that's why its attached to the board.

Thanks for sharing this wonderful find!

Have your researches been able to determine for it a date?

I could find very little info online about it other the an old Cabe post and a Copake auction listing for one. The consensus of both points to it being early 1900s, pre 1930. Given the fact it doesn't have a patent number and only says "Patent Applied For" on it I'm guessing this is a pretty early one.
