Guy told me he wanted $600 for it... I already have a Parks but I really like these old 'benchtop' planers.
Anyone know what they are worth in good working condition?
I thought this was really cool....no crank!

I'm really hoping someone can help me with one last hurdle. During re-assembly, I noticed that the bolts attaching the pressure bar were slightly bent. I discovered that the holes to mount the...
Anyone know if a dial indicator that has a short spindle? Under 4 inches? 5 inches seems to be the standard. Most of them advertise the diameter of the dial but not spindle length.
I'm stuck :(
I got it put back together but my dial indicator is too big to fit into the opening to finalize the setup. I need one where the spindle is 4" or less...the one I have is 5". I...
once the gear came off everything else came off pretty quickly. My mechanic gave me some stuff called Aero Kroil which worked like magic freeing up the stuck gears.
Evaporust shined up the...
I got a pair of vise grips around the collar part of the gear and got it spinning on the shaft. Eventually it came of. I'm having this problem with just about every collar and gear on the machine....
The issue is that the gear prevents the housing from being removed and a gear puller wont fit into the opening. Maybe if there were a right angle gear puller? I may have to fabricate something.
Can anyone help me figure out how to remove this gear?

Thats really the way I'd like to go....Can you get good results with a combo machine?
Looking for some opinions of value...I'm guessing $200. The story was it was used in a cabinet shop 20-30 years ago then stored for a long time. Original owner. Thanks for your help!!

I've heard that there are people out there who collect old planes...I guess just to look at them. Put it on Ebay for $500 and see what happens.

Harbor Freight has them for $20 - $30
Theres a 3 phase motor on CL right now for $35....Its the converter thats going to be expensive.
EDIT: i just googled and see that the VFD is the converter as well. They are on ebay for $400.

I got so much help from this thread that I bought a subscription. I'm super happy with this drill press too. Thanks again everyone!
is there anyway to add that to this drill press?
Also, evaporust is incredible.
Got it running!! May be missing a part that holds the belt tension. Luckily I used an adjustable belt so its okay for now.
I ended up grabbing a motor for the same price it would be to order a resilient motor mount which is what this needs. I guess wiring it up is as simple as power --> switch --> motor. The motor...
Well I got it for $40. It had been lying in the driveway for a few weeks and had gotten rained on a few times. When I asked if he had any of the missing parts he says oh yeah....goes to the trash...
