Comments:

This 12" Jointer has a 4-foot infeed and 3-foot outfeed table. Each table is held in place by gravity on sloped pads. Hand cranks adjust the heights with each pad adjustable for leveling. The bearings appear to be oil reservoir fed. Blades are 12.1" long by 1" by 1/8" thick. All the original bolt heads appear to be square with all fence, pedestal, and most bed adjusters being original. There are replacement bolts in other areas. The guard is missing but the mount is present. The unit came from a shop in Kentucky to the prior owner on central NY, then to me via Craigslist. I welcome feedback on maintenance, motor options, and more.
