Last year I purchased another woodworking shop that had been closed down for over thiry years . I had been driving past there all the time , when I decided to stop and peek in though the window . All I could say to myself was " jackpot " All of the old machines were still in there . So I tracked down the grandson that now owned it and he told me to make an offer on the whole shop . The building was falling down around everything , so all I wanted to do is get those machines out of there as quick as possible . This B.M. Root planer was completely covered up in saw dust ... It looked rough , but with alittle work it came back to life . I could not find any serial # on it . It does have a badge saying B. M. Root
