Comments:
This jointer was originally purchased and used at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, MI. It was replaced and taken by a student of the college. He did not use the jointer at all. This is when it ended up it my possession. Upon my acquisition, I replaced the cutterhead bearings, motor bearings, put on new belts, new knives, and all new electrical. I also had a new guard rod holder machined as well as bead blasted and repainted. Unfortunately I don't have a good overall before restoration picture, but I do have some random pictures to post from before the restoration.
