Comments:

I acquired this machine from a local school board in 2006. It was missing a knife and gib. Damage to the cutter head would indicate that a knife was "thrown" during operation (a scary thought). A trip to the machine shop with the cutter head, a new set of knives, gibs and a fresh set of bearings have returned this machine to like new condition.
