Bought this off an old circular mill. The owner needed a finer finish for customers. It has original paint and decals. It has sectional feed and chipbreaker. It is two knife square head and leather belt driven. It is at a sawmill run off a line shaft powered by a Detroit 671. He uses it for customers in exchange for powering it for my own use till I get its home situated and a power station for it. It's complete except for a few oil covers. It has adjustable Babbitt bearings and about 20 oil fills. It was talked about being scrapped to get money towards a newer Powermatic 24 inch to be line shaft driven. So I paid the scrappers bid that the owner showed me the paper for and it got a new lease. Ill keep it till its impractical then I don't know. I've never come across another and would like to find some descriptive literature. Ill post better and more photos in a bit with its serial number.
