Comments:

This was purchased by me on 10/27/18. The person I got it from had owned it a few years after buying off craigslist. He had never moved the fence. Downsizing had him needing the room in his shop. Photos are as-acquired. It appears to be complete with both guards and such. It even included a bit of dirty paper and the original knife-setting block. The tables show a bit of surface rust in spots, but the blanchard grind marks are there all the way across both tables (84" in length!). It is getting a tune up and put to use in my hobby shop at the moment. Powered by a dual voltage, single phase Daton 1hp motor. Belt driven. The casters appear to be additions. This one is too nice for a strip and repaint. It will wear it's original patina for some time.

Comments: Fence adjustment "controls". The small "lever" locks the fence laterally, the large knob is for locking the angle.
