This is not my machine. I recently acquired a Delta 37-220 from this jointer's owner,
(a semi-retired cabinet maker)and he kindly gave me permission to publish these pictures on this site. Don't know much history other than 10 inch two knife cutterhead. I do know the c/h knives are held on the c/h with a flat plate and square headed bolts. This is a lot of cast "arn". A long way from Grand Rapids.
