I bought this machine about 1985 it had some wear & tear but when I first saw it I had to have it. It appeared to be as old as the hills and made to last a lifetime or two I had to do some work on the babbits with the help of a friends dad hes 90 year old now who had worked in sawmills all his life with machinery and knew what to do to fix it also I had the table replaned a Walkers Ltd Maryborough Qld as it had been hollowed out somewhat it was set up with a 5hp 3 Phase power and I set it up with a 3hp Single Phase to it.
