I bought this machine from a nice cattle farmer in Womelsdorf PA for $250. The machine had been stored in his barn for a number of years. The machine is pretty filthy as you can see. I'm in the process of breaking it down an painting it. The machine has babbitt bearings and square cutting stock. A similar looking machine is featured in the 1986 " L. Power Improved Wood Working Machinery" Ad posted by Mark Conley. If anyone knows anything about the machine please let me know. This is my second OWWM and my first jointer I'm pretty excited.

Comments: Where I found it in the barn. The barn itself was quite beautiful. A large oak structure, six bays of timber with brick gables, canted queen post and a craftfully carved date stone that read 1854.
