I purchased this machine from Lenny Baledge (Wood_mangler). It was one of the many machines Ruckered around the country by Bill Hodgson on the Great Arn Sleigh. It is a good read!

Past this I don't know any history on the machine. It is quite complete though. It is only missing one of the knobs that locks the table down. The fence even has the sping/bar hold down on it. I suspect it originally had two of them but I am tickled to have one as a pattern to make the second one.

I have started the restoration on this one and will documenting it on my web site. I will also post more photos of the jointer.
