I bought this locally a couple of summers ago. had 8" Powermatic knives in. I finally got interested in cleaning it up
Original color was army drab green. stripped down to bare cast iron. (left a bit of drab green under c/h guard behind the fence). New knives, bearings and PlastiKote Machine gray over Rustoleum primer. Nicest jointer I've ever used.
