Picked this planer up from a government web site auction, had it shipped from Nova Scotia to the Waterloo region.Totally striped it down and replaced any parts that needed it, changed the motors and starters from 3phs to 10hp 220 volt single phase. Then gave it a fresh paint job, this machine is like new with very little wear, and runs and produces a flawless finish.
