Picked this up looking at the corner of an ad out west from a tool dealer. Made the inquiry if it was still around and soon made a deal and was having it shipped to me. Came 3phase, 550volt, 5hp and have since changed the motor to 5hp single phase and updated the electrics to match. Such a wonderful heavy piece of equipment. I would say on the loud'ish when in use but what a beast. Tables are 19" wide and 96" long. Ordered new knives for it and don't plan on changing anything else. Nicest jointer I have ever owned.
