Now that what I call one heck of a jointer. You can tell that was made at a time where we still had trees that big. Bet it will it will still be around in another 100 years. Great job on the resto.

Wow! Now that's what I call a restoration! I saw the additional pictures and writeup, very impressive.

BTW, small suggestion: I'd put a piece of ply between the two legs and stack a couple of cement or sand bags on top of it, to give the machine a little more weight. That way, it won't move when you joint a board :rotflm:

That is an awesome behemoth!

when not jointing wood, you can put a net on it and use it as a ping-pong table!
