I have stumbled across an oportunity to purchase a couple of machines. The first is a 12" planer made by Parks. The other is a Delta sanding center. I only had a few brief minutes to look at each machine and did not think at the time to write the model number of the Parks machine.
It appears to be industrial grade, 220 volt, not a piece of plastic on it anywhere. According the seller, her husband purchased the machine out of a cabinet shop in Ohio some years ago. It has 3 knives and comes with a replacement set of knives. She is asking $250 for the machine
Not knowing much about industrial grade machinery, I turn to those in the know, does Parks make quality equipment? It is an impressive looking piece of equipment, and I am interested in seeing it run, however I would like to here other opinions on the overall quality of this manufacturer before I pursue any further.
