An old Walker Turner 6" jointer acquired from a municipal (school) auction several months ago. Age unknown, and no other information gleaned at the time of purchase, but I'm listing the age as 1950's, as the badge says "Division of Kearney and Trecker" in fine print. Except for a few layers of paint, condition is very good, everything moves as it should and no missing parts. The stand is comprised of cast iron legs and a wooden plank for the top. Not sure if that is original. Couple of notable items; motor uses a triple V belt drive; fence is aluminum, and is surprisingly light.
