Comments:
Joshua Coder, of Minnesota, had Eric Tuck purchase this jointer at a farm sale. I bought the machine from Joshua in August/September, 2008 and--through diligent efforts by a number of people--had it trucked east. The current photographs show the machine as received here in Vermont. I'm a little sad that I can't just down get good overall photographs and will submit these showing 1), machine still stappred on trailer, and 2), machine very likely incorrectly assembled--it appears that both tables and the cutterhead assembly are installed backwards on the bed.

Nonetheless, I am very pleased to have this jointer in my possession.
