Saw this one and thought it looked familiar. The owner said it was an Eddleman he got at an estate sale, but I'm thinking never saw one with the front wheel forks cast with the deck. Blade spindle bearing housing didn't look right also. But they did use water pipes for the handlebars. Went by the shop and talked with Ken, showed him the pics. Seems there was another guy in the area who was trying to build mowers too, his was called Diamond. Kens dad and uncle bought this guy out around 1954, never used his design. I can see issue if you ever broke front wheel support, have to trash whole deck. On Eddleman you just change support. This mower is for sale and the guy is local. Just might have to.
