I'm giving away a 1860's New Haven planer. It is in storage and the storage company needs it moved ASAP. My shop isn't ready for it. The planer is about 14’ long and 7' feet wide and weighs between 3 and 4 tons. It has a 114” by 29" wide table. It has been converted to an acme screw drive, but the gear racks and bull gear are included. Missing is the clapper box, the tight/loose drive pulleys, and some drive linkages. Work envelope is about 10' x 3' x3'. It was built in the 1860s. The double start 2” (or 2.25”, I forget) by 14 foot acme screw and nut is worth a quite a bit of $$ in itself. Please refer to the photos for more information.
