Comments:
My Dad, a retired engineer, has asked me to sell this planer, and some other fine power tools, for him. He bought it new and used it for home projects. The only significant rust I've found is a spot on the feed roller (visible in one of the photos). All other rust-looking stuff is sawdust stuck to the copious oil he always used when running his machines. This unit purrs very smoothly and seems in perfect working order.
