I have been looking for a wide old iron jointer for some time without success to replace my 8" unmentionable. Just a retired hobbiest, but have woods and so wider rough sawn stock available. Litterally tripped over an ad and ended up talking to a woman who is helping the 90 year old owner get rid of his cabinet shop that was in operation up until 2 years ago and started by his father. Looked on the OWWM site at pictures, etc but could not find anything difinitive.
She is not read knowledgeable of the machinery (although very helpful and pleasant). Description started as an American jointer of 16 or 18 inch size. Picture, which I will upload by edit or in next post, is not real clear. If it was not 6 hours away I would go look, but am trying to figure out first. My guess is this thing has some kind of feeder set up on it. But have to admit I am ignorant on the old jointer / edger machines. So I am curious if any of you knowledgable folks can shed any light on this vague description and less than clear picture! And maybe for my use I should steer clear of an edger / jointer combination.
Thanks.
