Comments:

I found the machine at a auction and it reminded me of ones that I had used in the past in lumber yards to shorten or trim lumber. The Nice thing is that head rotates 90? but this one only has a throat of just over 18 in. for a running widths. The former owner had mounted the table on wood slats and casters which make handy for light cutting jobs for now.
