Comments:
purchased at machinery auction in Massachusetts. History unknown. 16HD three knife cutterhead. This jointer was originally set up direct drive, but converted to belt drive at some point in its life. At that time, the shaft was cut, but nicely done. original paint.

I'm in the process of fabricating a new custom motor mount. Once motor is mounted, all i will need is pulleys, belts, a motor starter and some new knives. Once its spinning, I will evaluate the condition of bearings and cutterhead.
