Sold at an auction in Greenfield, IL on 11/5/2006. 24" planer with square head. Infeed frame casting above the table was cracked in three pieces and held together by the serial number tag. Should be fixable. No chip deflector, but everything else seemed to be in pretty good shape. Some surface rust, but nothing really crusty, and everything seemed to move OK. Babbitt apparently in good shape. The photo is from the auction company because the batteries in my camera died. I'm pretty sure the serial number is accurate, but it be trsnsposed slightly. Selling price was $200, to a sawmill & tree removal guy who outbid at least two scrap dealers (hurray!).
