Another garage sale find. Last day of the sale and no takers. Too nice to leave behind.

Well cared for early-to-mid-50s Wards Powr-Kraft 5-inch jointer. Blades need touching up. Otherwise have just given light cleaning to bring to condition shown.

Described in catalog listing as "Ball Bearing Medium-Duty Model." Features include: 3/8" depth of cut; 5-1/16" HSS knives; 3-blade cutter head; 6" x 12.5" infeed and outfeed tables; both tables adjustable; cast iron construction; measures 27" overall length.

This model appears to have been manufactured for Wards by Duro Metal Products. Factory Number on name tag given as C34.
