Comments:

Purchased recently from individual who had it sitting in a shed for 14 years. The seller did not know anything about the machine and had lost the cutterhead gibs. The electric motor, which is in good condition, is a Craftsman 1/3 hp with a cast iron case. The sheet steel stand does not look original. The motor mount is cast iron and bolts onto the side of the stand.
Both infeed and outfeed tables have holes for the fence to attach. The tables are held in place by springs that mount to the jointer base.
