Belonged to a wood carver. He used intermittently. No other history known. Craigslist find.

Has a round gibbed 2 knife cutterhead. I don't know if this is original, but you can get the tables close to the cutterhead which would suggest that it didn't have a square head originally.

I could find no serial number anywhere on the machine.

Tables are both ~29" long
