   I believe it's an Enlon.

   It's an Enlon oscillating spindle sander, now called Star. It says so on his site if you know how to search for it.   We have the Grizzly OSS and for the money it's a good deal. I would avoid the Enlon/Star tools. The Grizzly will be better to get parts and service for in the long run.

   The Shop Fox W1686 is basically the same machine with a bigger table 27.5 x 27.5", better fit and finish and only a few bucks more.

   I haven't seen an advertisement for Star/Enlon for years.  Are they still in business?

   Star still around. 

   Thanks.  Their main showroom used to be down the road about thirty miles in West Virginia.  Looked like they had some pretty good tools. I see they are now in California, so the freight wouldn't be in my favour
