bought the planer a few towns over. got it at a good price, but sadly i brushed a quik coat of paint on it as half the paint had flaked off and i didn't have the time to disassemble and spray. couln't leave it as is because i store it in a barn and didn't want it to rust. great machine though planes an 1/8" at 15 or 18" wide no problem. 5 hp 3 ph. the only think i wonder about is the 1.75" flat belt that transmits the power from the head to the feed side, seems kinda small to me, but what do i know? located in middle boro, mass.
