I saw this sander at an estate auction in an area dominated by Amish, July 2016. Buggies outnumbered pickups in the field by 2:1. The sander was the largest woodworking machine for sale. If I could've fit it in my shop, I'd have gone for it. Winning bid was $80.

Kent apparently manufactured sanders for Schimmel and Co., but this one actually has Kent cast into it. I wish I'd known it was pretty unique, I would have gotten better pictures.

The table slides in and out on tracks in the arms, and the table appears to be vertically adjustable.
