I have been back and forth with the guy on this jointer for a few months now. My biggest problem was it was going to cost more in gas and motels than he wanted for the jointer. Looks like it may be possible for it to hitch a ride near me with some other machinery. I think that is a distinct possibility. I certainly hope so!
It doesn't look like much now. Matter of fact looks like it would take me two or three weeks to restore this one I wish! I have lusted over large jointer's for a while now. It's not something I really need. I just want one to restore! And of course to use too.
This is a photos of a restored 8" H&B jointer that is said to be almost identical. Minus of course the pretty paint job. Looking at this photo just excites me more! I know I am strange sometimes.
Check out that motor in the background! The jointer I am looking at is a flat belt drive and would use a motor like that. Odds are I won't find one but that would just be the icing on the cake!
