Bought at a local gov't auction. Came out of a high school shop in Vancouver that was allegedly being converted to a computer lab. Tested the motor and it runs smooth and quiet. Need to get some guides and a blade for it, and put it to work on resawing and on slabs. Has 30" wheels and a 28" throat, resawing capacity looks like 14" or so. Very interesting hand operated brake arrangement! It is too tall for my garage shop, and there is no way it'll fit into my basement shop either, so for the time being it sits in a warehouse rat hole!
