Comments:

Acquired from a young cabinetmaker in Great Falls, Montana, on 10/21/07 for $150 cash. It appears to be in excellent condition and does not show signs of extreme wear one would expect in an older machine. It has a brand new set of cutting blades as well as an old set, and appears to have all original parts. Nothing is cracked, chipped, or broken and runs fine. I haven't put a piece of wood through it yet but coming soon. The motor is a 2HP, 240V. It needs a new belt but that appears to be the only requirement before I start using it. Based on what I've seen and read on this site, I am very happy with my purchase.
