I recently acquired this nice machine and restored it as nice as I possibly could.This is a Powermatic Model 30A 6" x 48" belt and 12" disc sander in excellent shape. I am not sure of the year, probably from the 1970's or 1980's. New General Electric 1.5 HP single phase TEFC motor at 1725 rpm plugs into standard 110 outlet. New bearings on the power shaft on the bottom of belt. Top bearings on the belt roller did not need replaced. Sandblasted and primed, then painted with PPG paint that was scanned and is a nice color, though could probably be a little closer to original. New stripes. New switch. New belt on motor. New wiring.Platen is in great shape. Ebay item number is 2584548097 if you would like to bid on it.
