Comments:

got this jointer from a member. i did little to it other than clean it up a bit, paint it and add a motor and starter. it is an exercise in engineering elegance ... simple and sturdy but with features like the pair of *identical* tables which allow face jointing of boards wider than the cutterhead and the simple, effective skew fence.
