Comments:

Purchased from fellow owwmer Smitty and picked up in Auburn, Indiana, this replaced my much loved (but smaller) Powermatic 72. It saw service for the Department of defense during WWII and the related tags are still present. 5hp 3ph 440v motor spins up to an 18" blade. Came with an excellent Oliver miter gauge and model F quadrant fence, which has a tilting fence.

It's magnificent in every way.
