After reading the stories on OWWM of great finds on CList, I've been scouring CList on a daily basis. I came across an add for a Craftsman table saw, Delta table saw and Craftsman drill press for $275.00 In the grainy pix it I could just make out what looked like a 6" jointer lurking in the background. I called the guy and he was willing to part with the DP for $50, the jointer for $50 and the Craftsman saw for $100 (please see my other listings for the other machines). I was lucky, as one other guy had already gone out and looked but didn't bite. I went out there and made the deal of the year - $140.00 for the table saw, drill press and jointer! So I got each machine for about $46.00 each! I suck! (I didn't consider the Delta saw, as it had no motor and was a newer machine.)

This is a pretty basic 6" Craftsman jointer. I don't think I got such a great deal on this as with the other two machines. It was more of a gimme, as I was really interested in the saw and drill press. No motor, no stand, no FENCE! Anybody have an extra fence? My Dad has a bunch of old electric motors, so I should be able to get one from him. Any suggestions as to what HP and rpms I should be looking for? Three blade round cutter head. With the exception of the missing fence it looks complete. The guy I bought it from said he'd check out the storage place and see if the fence is there. That would be great luck! Now all I need to do is restore two saws and a drill press, then get a motor and fence, buy or build a table, and restore this! Oh, and magically find more space in my garage! LOL!

Any help locating parts and/or info for this is greatly appreciated. I've never had a jointer before and don't know much about them. Thanks!
