Comments:

I purchased this machine from a gentleman in western Wisconsin. It had been used at a sawmill as far as he knew. He had aquired the machine years ago in trade for some welding he had performed. The jointer has been sitting in a shed for quite a while but was sheltered and has fared pretty well by the looks of it.

Comments: Still on the truck, I underestimated my 2 ton shop crane and had to call a friend with a bobcat to pick it off the truck. The shop crane would pick it up fine, but as I would lift the truck kept coming up and I ran out of lifting clearance.
