This Buss 26" planer is in the Oregon State University Forest Resources Lab wood shop. It does not look like it sees much use these days. Although hard to see through the clutter this planer is equiped with a knife grinder and it has segmented infeed roller and chip breaker. I like the big table elevating wheel, that should be a requirement on all planers.
