An early RK planer thicknesser. I found this machine through an on-line ad in the Pittsburg, PA area. 24" wide x 9" high capacity. Sectional infeed rolls and chip breakers. Cutterblock holds four knives and spins at 5000 RPM at 60 cycles. Six speed feeds from 20 to 100 ft/min. Includes knife grinder. 10 HP motor drives both the cutterblock and the feed works.
