    Joe. I don't know about your oil issue. I'm not doing this restore myself and have never owned a jointer with oil bath bearings before. It will all be new to me when I receive it and put it to use.

    Oh I totally agree also. I wasn't complaining. There will be 10K in this one by the time it's done and shipped but well worth it to me. I will have one helluva nice jointer in the end and will know...

    I'm excited about it but none of it is cheap that's for sure. On the other hand it's what I was looking for and there's no way I could have done a restore to this magnitude.

    Yes. Steve is a perfectionist and does a jam-up job on his restorations. I feel very lucky to have found him when I did with him having a Porter in storage.
    The plan is to replace original bearings...

    When he told me the 3500.00 dollar price I said I couldn't do it and I'd bring all the lumber back. So he halved the bdft to 395 instead of 790 and treated it as 4/4 for $1800.00

    The crack in the cherry board may have been there already, just unnoticeable. The sunshine could have been just enough to get it to pop open if there was stress in the board.
