Hey peter,
I'm on the west coast of Canada. I also had someone say it was a Sutton McKay model that was originally sold as a bench top...but there are tooany parts that are below the separation lone (ie- spool holder thing, wax/lube reservoir, etc.)
I know one thing, with items this old it could have been flown here from the UK or us...or it might be from a small Canadian manufacturer.
