Picked this planer up at a local auction for a 50 year old cabinet shop closing. While I have been looking for a wide planer for a while, I was very happy to see it was a double sided planer and better yet that I outbid the scrappers. Yes, if I didnt buy this it would have been melted down. I believe this planer originaly was used in the Navy ship yard here in San Diego. It is missing the grinder, and I am searching for some information on how all all the oiler lines run ans a couple of them got damaged by the riggers.
