Comments:
This is a mini 4" jointer as part of a combo machine. I am listing it separately as documentation/ Beautifully cast and made! Precision, however the rabbit bearing is of the lowest quality!! Will see if I can get a bearing in their. The blade is 4 inches wide, and the bed is 20 1/4" long by 6" wide. Patent date of 1917 is on the aluminum guard. This is almost an exact scaled down version of the 6" size. I own a six inch, and it is surprisingly close to its larger brother. The castings for this little 4: jointer are surprisingly well done and precisely machined. (Please see other listing of the complete combo machine.) This was purchased as a complete combe machine for $40.oo Also came with an over sized 3/4 H.P. "B-Line: Brown and Brockmeyer" electric motor.
