Machine was in-service at a woodworking shop in West Virginia when sold on eBay in the early 2000s. It was in need of repair and restoration, but was fundamentally sound. I completed restoration shortly after acquiring and put into service in my hobby shop. It came with the original knife grinder and honing jig. 5HP direct drive with 1HP feed motor.
